Welcome to Chillicothe's very first children's museum!
We have worked hard to create exhibits and stations that promote creative development while allowing for self-directed learning for building creativity, divergent thinking, problem solving, and the ability to innovate. Research shows early learning experiences are keys to academic success. But most importantly to your child it's super fun!
Why a children's museum in Chillicothe?
A children’s museum is a community-wide investment in learning for children and families. They provide hands on interactive learning experiences to engage children, parents and families to learn, bond and have fun together. Exposing children to STEM activities in a fun interactive way can foster a desire to learn and encourage children to later pursue careers in these fields. A children’s museum is an overall benefit to a community by providing additional activities, encouraging families to live in our community and working together with other non-profit organizations, schools, colleges, youth organizations and corporate partners to provide resources for our community. Exhibits and programs complement school curricula and reinforce skills needed for academic success. A children’s museum provides a cultural attraction to provide a positive impact on the local economic economy by bringing in visitors.
About Mighty
We started out as three moms with a passion for giving our children and the children in our community the best possible opportunities. Seeing what other small towns all over the country have done to enrich the lives of their young ones through children’s museums inspired us to start out on a path to open one ourselves. We soon grew to five moms and two dads on the board of directors. We are a passionate group that wants great things for our children and our city.
Our Mission

Our Vision
To become a community resource in early childhood learning and development for kids from birth to seven years, with a special emphasis on children age three to five years old, by creating a space that is interactive, engaging, and safe for children and families.
