Hands down one of the best museums I've seen in Kansas thus far and it is so kid friendly you can't help but give it a 5 star, (I'd rate rate it a 10 if I could)!! They have the tornado simulator, a giant globe atom, electricity machine, Indian artifacts, just much going on!! Seriously, if you're anywhere near to Salina you really need to stop at the Smoky Hill museum. 8-a.m-5:p.m. Monday through Saturday. ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ud83dudc4cud83dudc4d
Free admission, does accept donations. Very good museum about the history of the area. Also takes you through different decades of what came about and things that were popular. There are kids interactive areas throughout to keep them entertained. I would recommend a visit.
This is a hidden gem in Salina. Amazing museum that is ABSOLUTELY FREE! They change their exhibits regularly. Whoever curates the exhibits really does a great job. There's always something interesting to look at. I especially like the interactive children's area and the tornado simulator. They also have a very nice gift shop carrying many products from local Kansas artisans. Grab your family and enjoy a morning or afternoon at this museum without breaking the bank and learning a little something, too!
We stopped here for a break from driving with our 1 year old. It is a great museum! Everyone working there was so friendly. The exhibits are really well done, and my son got a chance to run around a bit before we got back on the road.
Super children friendly. Children of all ages from my toddler to my teens. Very clean, well kept and modern design. Super educational and informative. Easy to follow and understand the very engaging displays. Loads of hands on activities for everyone in the family. Cute and affordable gift shop where you want to buy everything. And most of all, wonderful friendly staff. My children don't normally enjoy history and museums, but this one they absolutely loved. Will definitely be visiting again very soon.
