Museum of Childhood Memories

Located in Newport, Melbourne, the Museum of Childhood Memories celebrates the unique identity of Melbourne's western suburbs, rooted in working-class pride and industrial heritage. Unlike traditional museums, it emphasizes immersive experiences over static displays, capturing the emotions and experiences of growing up in the industrial West. The museum offers a fun and educational environment where families can connect through shared memories. Parents and grandparents are encouraged to recount their experiences in local industries, fostering intergenerational knowledge and connection. Through role-playing, workshops, and hands-on immersion, children gain a deeper understanding of the area’s history while making new memories, bridging the past and present.
