Bring the kids (and adults) out to Deanna Rose Children’s Farmstead to learn about life on a turn-of-the-century farm. This unique zoo contains over 200 animals found on farms throughout the nation, many of which are featured in the Petting Zoo. Gather freshly-laid eggs, milk a cow, bottle-feed a baby goat, ride a pony and more on this fun, interactive and educational farm.
If you prefer fun-based adrenaline rushes over fear-based, check out the Power Play Family Entertainment Center where people of all ages can have a great time experiencing all kinds of recreational fun. Climb a rock wall, race in the go-karts, get dizzy in a tilt-a-whirl, take out your aggression in bumper cars, compete in laser tag and much, much more.
Run by Union Station Kansas City, the Kansas City Museum can be found at the breathtaking Corinthian Hall. Also known as the R.A. Long House, this 3-acre complex is dedicated to displays about local history and natural science. See collections of local artifacts or look to the heavens in the 50-seat planetarium.
