One of my favorite places to explore as a child was Wonderscope Children's Museum. I remember when Wonderscope was first built (heck, I remember when the building was still a school!), so I was thrilled when my family had the chance to visit this summer.
Wonderscope is truly a hands-on museum for kids. There are several rooms, so you'll want to give yourselves plenty of time to visit and explore each one. One of the things that I enjoyed the most was that my kids could pick and choose which rooms they wanted to explore since the museum is entirely self-guided.
Whether you simply want to visit the museum to explore with your kids, burn up time on a rainy day, or explore as a home school field trip, this is fantastic for little ones. I noticed that many of the parents at the museum had toddlers, but both my 4 and 6 year old boys had a nice time playing.
You can visit Wonderscope online to find out more information. Wonderscope is open daily from 10-5 during the summer. On Sundays the museum doesn't open until noon, and during the school year they close at 4.
Pricing is as follows:
Ages 3-63 - $7
Ages 64 and up - $6
1 and 2 year olds - $4
Infants under 1 year - FREE
There is also a membership option so if you plan to visit frequently, that may be a more economical option.
Visit Wonderscope at: 5700 King, Shawnee, KS 66203
or call them at 913-287-8888 for more information.
