Loved the outdoor space to explore with little trikes and a playhouse, wheelbarrows, etc. There were several reading books set areas set up with books to read to your kids, a large overhead climbing area, lots of busy boards, tables set up with smaller building toys for older kids, and more!

There is real life activities, such as a kitchen, a grocery store, a train, that has additional things for kids to do that mock real life, which includes a cooking apron, a train engineer, coat, etc. They have an outdoor area and when we were there, it was cooler and rainy, but I could see that this is a wonderful extension to additional play areas suggest a treehouse, a farm silo and a farmers market. Now the treehouse was a little bit dirty, but I think it's probably the time of the year and that it was really damp and wet during our visit. There's a place for you to have lunch. There are organized activities in the afternoon, which we did not participate in, but that goes additional things to do in the afternoon if you're there for a long period of time. The employees there were more than helpful and friendly . Facility was very clean and well organized.

There's a…read morefull farm with a active stagecoach and driver, and for a nominal fee you can actually ride in a real stagecoach which is an experience that everyone should experience to appreciate modernity. The house is fully restored and owned by the city of Olathe, marked as a national landmark. There's a functional blacksmith and lessons on particulars of blacksmithing. There is a wash station, and goats and chickens and sheep and horses and all the accompanying accoutrement. The house particularly is wonderful. The stagecoach stop was essentially like a gas station of the old world, and one would get off the stagecoach, which was like a bus, and go down into the cellar of that stagecoach house to have supper at this massive table with functioning 1850s kitchen that they use to this day to make samples in the wood fire. It's really something to see, and they even have an ice house that they tried to make functional but couldn't figure it out. Essentially a massive building where you put huge blocks of ice packed with sawdust that keep the ice Frozen for a year nearly. It's such a neat place, and the dedicated staff really commit. I would recommend anybody that lives in Kansas to go here and check it out, because it truly is living history.

    I was visiting town to see a friend at the Renaissance Fair a few months back, and happened to find…read morethis museum while doing a quick search before I left. Although my experience with the Deaf is relatively limited, I've had an interest in ASL since I was young so I was very excited to come and visit! I walked in and went directly to the gift shop, thinking I should wait for someone to lead me into the museum. I found several things that I wanted to buy after I viewed the museum itself, including ILY keychains and more! The museum itself does have a lot to read, but it was very interesting to learn more about the Deaf and their culture. They also have a quiz you can take at the end of the museum. You get the answers from the exhibits, although it seems that I did miss a few! To reiterate though, there is a lot of reading and I probably got through half (maybe less) of the museum before I started cherry-picking what to read and look at. In that regard, it might be best to come back several times, if you can, and take it in little by little! I also got a chance to practice my sign language skills, which I hardly ever do, so I was barely conversational. That could be partly attributed to being nervous though, since it is a foreign language to me. Nonetheless, if you get the chance to sign/speak with the volunteers (emplyees?) there, do it! They were both very fun to converse with.

    This is a must visit! The only complaint I have is that I did not schedule more time in my day to…read morebe here. My visit was for a class project. I am truly thankful for this project as I found the museum absolutely fascinating and very informative. You learn about how innovations limit barriers for deaf individuals. You will learn about the history of deaf schools. The discrimination and attempts to force deaf individuals to adapt to the hearing world are heart breaking. The room set up to show how a deaf person lives is fascinating. The staff is great. Knowing a bit of sign language helped me to be able to communicate with the deaf staff, but where we found barriers in communicating they were very friendly and accommodating and we easily overcame those communication obstacles. Take some time to visit this hidden gem in Olathe. It is free to visit, but throw some money in the donation box. The knowledge you will gain is worth it!!!

And every paid visit helps continue what they're doing for these creatures. A visit here includes detailed information about the sanctuary, its founders, and all the animals in their care. Crazy rescue stories, behavior and personalities of the big cats, and the expansion plans in progress to give more area to the animals. Located in Louisburg, KS, it can be a long drive to get there from downtown Kansas City, but it's totally worth it. And if you can, be sure to come during feeding time for even more educational information about the diets of these beautiful animals.

I treasure the small intimate settings where you can really observe the animals. I dig on talking with the workers, who you can tell love their jobs. I don't mind the admission fees, because I know it goes right back into the animals. And I don't even mind getting stuck in the gift shop for the same reason. This is a smaller venue, so sometimes my kids fly through and I feel a little cheated, but the coolest part is you can just wrap back around again. Most the time you'll even see something different on the second pass.
