The 23 Best Things to Do in New Orleans

"After three decades in downtown New Orleans, the LCM opened its doors in its new, much larger City Park location in 2019. The Museum has been thoughtfully designed to be a learning resource for families and children of all ages, with resources that focus on social and cultural learning. It’s very hands-on as you might expect, with a comprehensive program of exhibits, installations and activities. It’s a fun way to stimulate learning in all manner of subjects, from literacy to health and wellbeing, and from arts and local culture to science and environmental education. The seasonal events calendar is jam packed with special presentations. These include live performances as part of the Children's Museum's Play Soirée, the enjoyably messy Mud Fest where building and burrowing are encouraged, or parent and toddler-focused groups such as Kindergarten Kickoff, which has caregivers and experienced staff talk about their experiences to smooth the transition from home to kindergarten for everyone involved." - Paul Oswell
