The Central Children's Museum on Lubyanka, located in the building of the legendary Soviet Children's World, is not only a wonderful place for shopping, but also the most interesting landmark of Moscow. Sometimes this historical building continues to be called the Central Children's World out of habit, but this is exactly the hypermarket of this trading network here and not. The flagship Children's World is located on Vozdvizhenka, and TsDM stands for Central Children's Store.
Five floors of the shopping center are occupied by a hundred children's, two dozen cafes and many for children.

The world's largest children's shopping complex finally reopened after a long renovation. Detsky Mir, built in 1957 by Soviet architect Alexei Dushkin, was the most famous children's store in the USSR. The products of all plants and factories in the field of children's clothing, shoes and toys were presented here. In 2008, the building was closed to the public due to the emergency condition of the supporting structures, and only in December 2014 the repair was completed.
The famous building on Lubyanka not only changed its name to the Central Children's Store, but also changed inside: new architectural solutions, one of the best viewing platforms for the center of Moscow, flagship stores, interactive zones with educational programs on each floor of the department store, and much, much more.

As for the changes, the space of the central atrium has increased by raising the dome from the 3rd to the 7th floor.
Now a stage has been equipped here, where children's events, parades of life-size puppets, performances are held daily, and every evening a three-dimensional light show transforming the atrium into a "magic music box". During the program, the whole wall is illuminated with the brightest colors of various subjects, the first of which are “History of Russia” and “Nature of Russia”.

For several decades, he was part of the scenery of the store, moving his ears and standing on his hind legs. After closing for reconstruction, the baby elephant was given to a large family as a gift, and only after the collection of commemorative toys for the museum was announced, he returned here.

My first acquaintance with Detsky Mir took place in the summer ... in July .... on Monday .... It just so happened that I met relatives from Kubinka that day, who had gone to Moscow for a walk. There was a 10 year old girl with the adults. I offered to go to the Lubyanka in the Children's World, they say I read the reviews, they write that there is a real paradise on Earth. Let's take the baby...
_______________________
How to get there. Metro Lubyanka. Exit directly from the subway. There is a sign at the station showing you where to go.
Entering the CDM from the metro side, you will go straight to a string of shops. You will also find an interactive photo studio.
The central entrance will lead you to the main atrium, decorated with paintings from children's fairy tales about the frog princess, Vasilisa the Beautiful, Tsar Saltan and others.
Also in the main atrium you can see the giant monumental clock "Rocket". An amazing sight, striking in its scale. I don’t know how anyone, but I was amazed by the look of the Rocket.
The CDM has several escalators and glass elevators. On weekends, it is better not to use the elevator if your child has long grown out of the stroller, or if you came without a child at all. By the way, on the elevator doors it says:
We ask you not to take the elevator, because. a lot of people with baby carriages.
Unfortunately, no one follows this rule and everyone rides the elevator instead of using the escalator, and parents with strollers are forced to wait for an empty elevator to go up or down.
Toys.
You can not only look at many toys in the Central House of Children's Houses, but also touch them, and even play with some of them.
On the ground floor, I remember even walking a small electronic dinosaur. He could be stroked, to which he reacted amusingly with a purr and wagging his tail. Apparently, this miracle of technology was released only on Mondays))), because on other days little visitors would simply trample it))). And so, there are no people, stroke the animal as much as you want)).
Some of the toys are presented in a fairly large scale. For example, Little Ponies, beloved by many girls. When I took my daughter to the Central Children's House, she hugged all the ponies and took pictures with each one several times.
With Equestria Girls you can sing karaoke. All these almost human-sized dolls stand side by side on a small stage.
You can sit in a pumpkin carriage.
Touch the giant Furby.
Gaze at huge transformers (it’s even scary to approach them. It seems now how it will come to life and go to destroy everything))).
Stand next to Thomas the engine.
On the ground floor there is a miniature model of the area where the locomotive travels. My daughter stood near this locomotive for a long time))).
There seems to be a carousel and a mini-railway on the second floor. You can ride there for free. Because Since we were at the Central House of Music for the first time on Monday, there were very few visitors. Our girl was rolled on the carousel alone.
On another day (also Monday), but before the new year, there were more children, and the girls who followed the carousel specially collected several who wanted to ride. Apparently not to waste electricity. One child was even persuaded to ride.
On the same floor where the carousel is located world of LEGO. There are many stationary figures made of blocks around, and there are also tables with Lego pieces. You can sit down with your child and play in the designer.
And of course, the CDM could not do without the legendary Masha and the Bear. Those who wish to sit in the Bear's chair and watch his TV set are given this opportunity. Well, there is a Bear himself, sitting on a bench near the makeshift entrance to the house. But Masha can be found on the balcony of the same floor in the company of a huge .... giraffe))).
Master class at the Sylvanian Families cabin
D children sculpted from plasticine, glued stickers on disks. And then the rabbit Maria came and the funny dances began...
And here mass dance show, in which everyone could participate.
In several photos, a family from Japan is dancing on the red carpet to "Rasputin")...
__________________
Among other things, on one of the floors there is a piano located on the floor. Accordingly, you can play such an instrument only with your feet ... But the trouble is, the weight of some visitors is not enough to fully press the huge key in comparison. My 14-kilogram daughter just ran across the piano and did not understand why my mother insisted on walking along this black and white path.
___________________________
KIDBURG- this is something that will be interesting for children from 4-5 years old. The city where the children live is located on the 5th floor.
The city hall, post office, labor exchange, port, hospital, Ministry of Emergency Situations, television and radio studios and other institutions are located on 3000 square meters, without which it is impossible to imagine a modern metropolis. A supermarket, a city cafe, a bakery were opened for visitors, new play areas were developed exclusively for Moscow - a mine, an architectural bureau, a flower shop, a court, tourist agency and others.
Somehow they took my nephew there. The guy is 9 years old. They barely got him out of this fun.
Children there get professions, earn money, put out fires, work as doctors, security guards, policemen. Ours in the bakery hung, it really hurt to bake Easter cakes))).
Very cool project. Children there feel grown-up and important))) well, it’s just pure tenderness, neither give nor take)))
Entertainment is not free . Prices can be viewed on the official website of the CDM.
_________________________________________
Interactive complex "Visiting Alice" or "Alice in Wonderland", located on the 3rd floor. Nothing special but kids love it.
What the complex is like is several sensory tables where you can paint the characters of the fairy tale about Alice. You choose a color from the menu and move your finger over the picture.
Next to the tables is a magic tree, on which fairy-tale characters hung.
____________________________________________
Where to eat...
On the 6th floor there is a gluttonous place that could not do without McDonald's. Where would it be without him))) Even here he fit in and gathers crowds.
We were looking for a cafe with a children's menu there. To be honest, they didn’t find anything so childish.
There is also a cafe on other floors. On the third there is a place where, next to the tables, there is a small fenced area where you can put a small child to play, and sit at a table yourself. True, this playground is only for very small ones - a year, a year and a half, no more.
________________________
In the summer at the Central Children's Museum was trampoline, but under New Year he was gone. My princess was upset, that's what she expected the most, and then such a bummer.
______________________
In addition to the above entertainment, there are several labyrinths where children can run.
For example, here is the entrance to one of them:
________________________
Is there and children's hairdresser. I noticed it by accident. Passing by, I heard the screams of a little boy, whom they tried to put in a child seat in the form of a typewriter, or something, and cut it. The guy resisted as best he could, thereby drawing the attention of the visitors of the Central House of Children to his person and the hairdresser as a whole)))
I’m afraid to imagine what the prices are there ...)) Maybe the guy was crying because of this, trying to save the family budget or spend money on something more useful than a haircut, but his parents didn’t understand anything)))).. ........
Museum of Childhood.
I even shed a tear...
The museum contains toys from the past. Plastic Santa Claus and Snow Maiden, tumblers, cars, soldiers, dolls, hares, bears, squirrels, Gena the crocodile and Cheburashka...
It seems to me that we played with very kind toys.............
_______________________________________
Observation deck. It offers a magnificent view of Moscow. Of course, not all, but only a part, but what!
_______________________________
A little about prices.
I don’t know who buys goods in the Central House of Children’s Stores, because the price tag there is many times higher than in a regular shopping center. This is understandable. Such shopping centers are probably more focused on wealthy foreigners. And the locals come there to have fun, and even then not often - you won’t run into the center of Moscow.
I only made 2 purchases there. One in H&M - children's trousers for 500 rubles, the second in Mothercare - 3 pairs of children's leggings for 700 rubles. And it was also a sale.
Buying toys there is nah ... Expensive, even too much.
Unless I would buy a Japanese designer. As for me, it’s a worthwhile toy, for such money it’s not a pity. Yes, and I saw such designers only in the Central House of Artists. You can find them on the 3rd floor directly opposite the interactive complex "Visiting Alice".
I have to admit that there is enough to be found rare things, which you will not find in ordinary shopping centers in sleeping areas. Again, back to the Japanese designers... Or the author's clothing items.
On the 3rd floor I saw a small shop, rather just a stand in the middle of the "street" with clothes of some Russian designer. Cute sweatshirts, shirt dresses with embroidery in the form of owls for children and adults. Something like a family look. Nothing, it's cute. And not very expensive. On Instagram, different craftsmen sell similar clothes for the same money. And here you can at least try it on and see what you are buying.
___________________________________________
Annoying photographers.
We ran into these guys when we went to the Central Children's Museum before the new year. First, an uncle with a kind face pestered us, and then an aunt. The latter, seeing how her daughter sits down with each pony, ran up in the hope that we would agree to at least one photo.
"Girl, what's your name?"
"Oh, come on, Dasha, I'll take a picture of you!"
And Dasya, let's pose and smile - so much attention fell out of nowhere! Why am I not a star?!
After a short photo session, it was offered to buy a photo for 350 rubles, or 2 fridge magnets for 600.
No, please. We already have such photos in our phone, I don’t want to print ...
_____________________________________________
Here he is Central baby store on the Lubyanka. You can still write two of the same canvases about him, but I'm afraid no one will master it.
In addition, in the CDM various events take place , there are animators. Some children can't be kicked out of there)).
And yes, I almost forgot... when is the best time to go there? The staff themselves say that on weekends there are crowds of people. Therefore, if you really want to take your child there, but you don’t feel like pushing, choose a weekday. But this is in winter.
In the summer, in July, we were with children at the Central Children's House on Saturday. There are more people than on weekdays, but not very much. Apparently, everyone is on vacation in the summer.
The negative impression of the CDM will most likely be due to the large number of people who go there on weekends. On Saturday, you can’t even ride the carousel there - it doesn’t work, it’s written that way.
