Indiana State Museum

650 W Washington Street, Indianapolis, 46204, IN

Indiana’s museum devoted to science, culture and Hoosier history encompasses three floors of artifacts. Start with an introductory movie and exhibits on fossils from ancient sea creatures. Kids can explore bones, jump as hard as they can for a Make a Quake seismograph, learn about the railroad and settlement, and hear tales from a slave escaping to freedom. If you have daughters who like to dress up, the museum’s restaurant — a elegant tea room — offers the ideal setting.
