- The Children's Museum, Siri Fort, established by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) is a museum specifically created to educate children on the cultural, archaeological and historical heritage of India through replicated sculptures created from the existing well known sculptures in various museums and heritage sites in the country. The museum houses 30 such sculptures created by students of the College of Arts and Crafts, Patna, under the direction of K. K. Mohammed, an archaeologist who had formerly worked as Superintendent Archaeologist of ASI's Delhi circle. The museum is located in a lane adjoining the Siri Fort Auditorium and Siri Fort sports complex in South Delhi, New Delhi. A unique life-size sculpture created and exhibited in the museum is of Mughal Emperor Akbar which is not found anywhere else in the country. There are also statues of Emperor Ashoka, and Shah Jahan; these three statues were added when the museum was opened for public viewing in May 2011 and are located in the garden surrounding the museum.
