I’m sitting here listening to the torrential rains run through my gutters and onto my deck, hoping that the creek behind my house doesn’t burst its banks overnight! Soccer games have already been canceled for Saturday. So…what to do in soggy Kansas City with the kids in the rain?!
- Arcades, bowling or movies? Check out our list of Indoor Activities for more ideas.
- Hit the crafts stores and work on some projects at your dry kitchen table. Take a look at our list of cool Arts & Crafts stores to spark your imagination.
- How about some books? Head to your local library or check out the newest offerings at the Reading Reptile in Brookside.
- The Toy & Miniature Museum, Wonderscope Children’s Museum, Science City, College Basketball Experience, the National World War I Museum. Haven’t been yet? Then, this is the perfect day for these and any of Kansas City’s other museums. Choose from our Museum directory!
- Paradise Park, Zonkers and other indoor playzones are bound to be crowded in the rain – but guaranteed fun! We’ve got a good list of play places to check out!

This is interesting, I love reading it!
certainly like your web-site but you need to take a look at the spelling on quite a few of your posts. Several of them are rife with spelling problems and I find it very troublesome to tell the truth then again I’ll certainly come back again.
