Scorching days are ahead of us as we get to the middle of summer here in the Midwest. Sometimes, it’s simply so hot that not even hitting the pool can keep you cool. On the next super hot day, we’ve got an event that you and your kids will love! For a limited time, Union Station in Kansas City will be holding an absolutely epic dinosaur event. It’s an attraction you really shouldn’t miss. Keep reading to find out what to expect.
Located in the beautiful and historic Union Station in downtown Kansas City is the Dinosaurs Revealed exhibit. This limited time event will run from July 3rd until January 6th.
It's been no easy feat bringing this event together for its world premiere. These dinosaurs are so large that many required heavy equipment to be put into place. Union Station has been preparing for months for this journey into the past.
Kids will get the opportunity to learn about dinos from real scientists. In addition to the animations, there are two massive full body skeletons, dozens of real fossils, and opportunities for hands-on digging.
You'll truly feel as though you've traveled 252 million years into the past. Even parents will learn something new at this fascinating event. It's hard not to enjoy the almost magical world of dinosaurs.
Admission is $15 on weekdays and $17.95 on weekends. While this event runs for a few months, don't push this one off too long. It's the perfect activity for a super hot summer day!
