Kick off a good time for the whole family in Kansas City, Missouri with a trip to Deanna Rose Children's Farmstead, then stalk wild beasts at the Kansas City Zoo, or mount an amazing adventure at Union Station.
Let city kids experience the charm of country living at the Deanna Rose Children's Farmstead. Wander through the woods in a wagon hauled by horses. Hook kids into a love for animals when they bottle feed baby goats. Dip into relaxation when you and your child try fishing at the farm's pond. Take a special guided tour of the property, including a stop at the one-room school house, and unleash your child's imaginings of pioneer days.
Keep kids excited about animals at the Kansas City Zoo, where they can see seals slip and spin through the water or hop in hilarity when they watch the kangaroos. Chat with a zookeeper during penguin feeding time and watch the black and white critters gulp down fish. Join a zookeeper at the WOW bird show and find out how the feathered friends fly. Chug along on the zoo's miniature train, then engage in close encounters with animals in the Kid Zone, a specially designed area for little ones to cut loose, play and learn.
Travel back in time with a trip to Union Station as you and the kids wander below the majestic vaulted ceilings of the century old station. Touch a train at the station's hands-on railroad exhibit, then climb aboard and imagine cruising down the tracks like travelers of years gone by. Discover the glory of the night sky and launch your little astronomer's learning at the planetarium housed in Union Station. Don't forget to make a stop at Science City, an interactive science center created to capture kids’ interest in the natural world.
