Family-Friendly Pittsburgh

From its excellent parks and family-friendly eateries to seasonal activities such as sledding and skating, Pittsburgh is a great choice for clients with children of all ages. Better still, there are some world-class indoor attractions to keep the little ones occupied and entertained whatever the weather or season. Below are some of the best attractions to recommend:

  • Carnegie Science Center – Home to the World’s largest permanent robotics exhibition, star of the show is the Robot Hall of Fame showcasing movie giants such as C-3PO of Star Wars fame. There’s much to enjoy, from industrious residents such as Robo-Cow to the recently added, human-sized MoBots such as Sweet Lips and Raven. The interactive exhibits on the Fourth floor are particularly great for families with small children.
  • Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh – From its LEED-accredited sustainable design to the wide range of temporary and permanent interactive exhibits, this Pittsburgh gem serves up its educational offerings with a big dollop of fun and it’s a great option to keep in mind for days when the weather’s not playing ball. Options for older kids include museumlab and it’s even got a great café, Bean Sprouts.

  • Moonshot Museum – Opened in 2022, this educational experience, located inside Astrobotic’s headquarters in Pittsburgh’s North Side neighbourhood, will be a great pick for older children to come up close and behind the scenes to Pittsburgh's 21st century space industry.
