The Child Museum in Cairo is a dedicated space aimed at educating young visitors about ancient Egyptian civilization through interactive exhibits. Located within the city, the museum features two floors that cover various aspects of life in ancient Egypt, such as temples, pyramids, and daily life. Tours are guided and typically last about three hours, allowing ample time to explore each floor’s offerings. The museum is suitable for children, particularly those up to 10 years old, and includes play areas and games to enhance the learning experience.

Visitors can expect to engage with numerous hands-on activities, including puzzles and excavation simulations that keep young minds active. The first floor focuses on monumental architecture, while the second floor presents daily living conditions of ancient Egyptians. The museum aims to make history enjoyable and educational, though some areas may be undergoing maintenance after recent renovations. Access is generally affordable, but payment options are cash-only at the gate.
