Review & FAQ:

Created to foster a lifelong love of learning, the Wonderscope Children’s Museum of Kansas City is a fun, hands-on museum specifically designed for kids 8 and younger. There are seemingly endless interactive learning opportunities for children to enjoy, but highlights include a build-your-own-racetrack exhibit, a farm exhibit that shows how food makes it from the farm to the grocery store, and a play vet clinic. If your kids would rather do something even more active, they can go rock climbing in the Wonder Gym or explore the outdoor garden that teaches kids about the world of plants.
