The Children's Museum of Pittsburgh is based on the concept of letting kids "play with real stuff." Exhibits designed for babies, toddlers, older children, and even their parents encourage hands-on play and learning. The exhibits are designed to fire a kid's imagination, challenge their abilities and teach them to understand the world they live in. 

You can make a boat and send it into the rapids and whirlpools in Waterplay, try to keep your balance in the Gravity Room, visit Mister Roger's Neighborhood, and get behind the wheel of a MINI Cooper car. The "Backyard" exhibit adds outside fun (what kid can resist playing with water, rocks and mud?) during warmer months.
