The Boston Children's Museum is a children's museum in Boston, Massachusetts dedicated to the education of children. Located at 300 Congress Street in South Boston on the Fort Point Channel, the museum contains many activities meant to both amuse and educate young children. The museum was founded in 1913 by a group of teachers in Boston's Jamaica Plain neighborhood. George Hunt Barton was an early leader and the museum's first president. In addition, Michael Spock was the museum's director from 1962-85.
The museum moved to its current site in the late 1970s and now occupies the first four floors of the building. At one time, the space was shared with the Boston Computer Museum, which closed in 1999. The museum closed December 31, 2006 for renovation of the existing space and the completion of a 23,000-square-foot addition. It reopened on April 14, 2007. Source wikipedia
