== History ==
Madison Children’s Museum was founded in 1980 by a group of early childhood specialists. The founding board of directors and volunteers built traveling exhibits that were displayed at neighborhood centers, parks and playgrounds. They also operated a pilot museum in the basement of the Wisconsin Academy of Sciences, Arts and Letters. The success of the pilot program prompted the museum to relocate to a warehouse at Bedford and West Washington.
After a successful capital campaign, Madison Children’s Museum opened its doors in another rented location on 100 State Street in 1991. The museum once again outgrew its space.〔("Madison Children's Museum plans move" ), ''Milwaukee Journal Sentinel'', December 12, 2000.〕 In 2005, MCM acquired a $5 million, five-story office building through the generosity of W. Jerome Frautschi.〔("Madison Children's Museum Receives $5 Million Gift" ), ''Philanthropy News Digest'', April 16, 2005.〕 The museum undertook a $10 million capital campaign to renovate the building, create an accessible green roof, and install new exhibits. The new facility opened on August 14, 2010, and greatly expanded the museum’s capacity.〔Alicia Yager, ("New Madison Children's Museum is an experience to behold" ), ''Wisconsin State Journal'', August 8, 2010.〕
In 2014, Madison Children's Museum earned LEED Gold Certification for an existing building, LEED standing for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design. The museum was honored for its green practices, like its use of recycled building materials and composting practice.
