First Sunday Family Fun Day

First Sunday of Every Month | noon-4 p.m. | Free | 3-12 years old

 

The Kansas City Museum’s First Sunday Family Fun Day is a fantastic way to share a great family moment and have a little fun too! The event, held on the First Sunday of every month, allows children to have fun while also having an exceptional learning experience. There are historic games and scavenger hunts held on the grounds to play. For the artsy person in your family, there is an arts and crafts area. There’s historical information and exterior panels surrounding the Museum for the history aficionados and if you are lucky enough, you might get a free old-fashioned treat.

 

Sunday, June 3 | noon-4 p.m. | Free

 

Record Your Own History

Family histories are passed down in many ways, orally through songs and storytelling, or written, through poems and journals. Visitors will embark on a journey through their own family histories at First Sunday Family Fun Day from 12-4 p.m. Sunday, June 3 at the Museum. Families can learn and experiment with some of the different ways people have passed down their family histories, such as through oral histories and story quilts. Visitors can create their own family history journals and start recording their family histories, design a cave drawing and so much more!
