The Kansas Children's Discovery Center is ‘Serious Fun’ for the whole family! With interactive exhibits and hands-on discovery, children and families can enjoy fun-filled hours exploring art, nature and science together.

All ages can conduct science experiments, construct towers, create messy artist masterpieces and get up close with nature outdoors. The Discovery Center’s exhibits emphasize math, science and the arts, encouraging both critical and creative thinking, as well as promoting physical and gross-motor activity.

With programming and exhibits that align with the Kansas curriculum objectives, the Discovery Center is a resource for educators and provides interactive field trips for students in northeast Kansas. Birthday parties, family reunions, wedding receptions and corporate retreats are always ‘Serious Fun’ at the Discovery Center.

6 and 8 year old boys enjoyed three hours exploring three activities, the farm pulleys, the large foam blocks. The 8 year old liked the workshop and the younger boy the wind scarfs. We loved the friendly interaction of adults and other children. Since it was beach week we had delicious popsicles. Thanks

So much fun! My 6 year old son had a blast and can't wait to go again! Even my 15 year old had some fun! 🙂

Was there with my 5 1/2 month old. Not much for him to do. But he loved it. And it was visual overload for him. Good place to hang with the kids.

We drove 2 hours to check out KCDC. It did not disappoint. There were so many activities for my 4 and 1 year old. The staff we're constantly cleaning and sanitizing. My 1 year old fell and bumped his head, an employee came over and asked if he needed an ice pack. Cannot say enough about out experience. Wish it was closer so we could go more often!
