The Old Cowtown Museum makes it possible to really travel back in time without the aid of a time machine! Return to the Old West as Wichita and Sedgwick County are recreated between 1865 and 1880. Take a ride in a covered wagon, dress up in the costumes of the day to take an old-style photograph, and see genuine artifacts from the era in the museum. And don't forget to see the historic buildings on your way to the gift shop to take home a memento of your time in Old Cowtown.
It all begins with a child's imagination. If your kids are imaginative and love to draw and create things, then fostering that talent by visiting an equally creative environment is the next logical step. Take that step at the Mark Arts; it doesn't matter if your child wants to create something hands-on like pottery or take part in a full-fledged theatrical production, this attraction offers these and lots more avenues on which your budding artist can express himself.
The Tanganyika Wildlife Park takes the concept of going to the zoo one adventurous step further by giving you a chance to really interact with your favorite animals. At this attraction, you can hand feed the giraffes, ride on top of a camel, and walk up next to a kangaroo for an unforgettable photo opportunity! The kids will love the accessibility to the wildlife, and the expertly trained staff are always around to ensure safety as you marvel at this incredible collection of animals.
