Mission: To spark a lifelong love of learning through the universal and uniting power of play! Vision: Wonderscope is appreciated as an educational resource in our community that provides all children and families with the opportunity to build a solid foundation for success in school and beyond. Values: Wonderscope is committed to serving and honoring people of all backgrounds, ethnicities, religions, gender identities, sexual orientations and physical abilities in a safe, educational environment that reflects the diversity of our community. The Regnier Family Wonderscope Children’s Museum of Kansas City provides dynamic exhibits and programs that integrate the (STEAM) sciences, technology, arts, engineering, mathematics, and literature for children ten and under, their parents and teachers from across the Kansas City area. LEARN*PLAY*GROW communicates our belief that children learn best through play and through fun, imaginative hands-on learning, they can grow to their fullest potential. Interactive learning experiences with family and friends engage children’s natural motivation to learn and discover their world. Wonderscope’s informal learning environment is filled with engaging play experiences in literacy, the arts and the sciences. This rich environment naturally inspires curiosity, and ultimately, a love of learning in young children.
