Field Trips

Field trips to Union Station, Science City and the Kansas City Museum are real attention-grabbers designed to fully engage the kids in your group. We provide a genuine learning experience that simply can't be duplicated for schools, scouts, church organizations or any other youth group.

 

We've got programs designed for pre K all the way through the 12th grade.

 

The field trip planner for the 2008-2009 school year is now available to download (PDF). All programs and events, as we know them, for Science City and the Kansas City Museum are included.

 

Please check back soon for updates on our exciting spring 2008 exhibit and for information on continuing education credit classes for teachers.
