The Whole Child Development Center

Lenexa, KS Childcare Services & Facilities - Lenexa, KS Children's After School Programs 09/24/05: 'Great Location---Super Staff'

This center is located across from Rosehill Elementary. The teachers/directors are kind and caring. I have personally worked with several of them and found them to be totally devoted the children and their needs. They are kind, caring and nurturing. Call and arrange a tour and you will see what I mean.

PROS: Kind and caring staff
CONS:

Rolling Hills Zoo

Salina, KS Museums - Salina, KS Zoos & Aquariums 07/30/05: 'What can I say? This place is Awesome!!!!'

I had never heard of this place until a relative mentioned it. It is a bit of a drive from Kansas City---but well worth the trip. The zoo has animals I had never seen---like an anteater and an ardvark. You can get fairly close to the animals. A lot or are to cover---so would suggest buying the tram pass. There is a large covered picnic area right outside the zoo. The picnic area has lots of picnic tables, pop machine, electricity and restrooms. Across from the zoo is a wonderful museum. The museum shows animals in their natural habitat. Some of the animals are motorized--so they move. There are also some "people" (statues) that "talk" and describe things. There is a neat theater on the way out of the museum. You can buy a pass to either the zoo or the museum ---or get a combo pass at a reduced price. They have a nice website that gives a lot of info. Highly recommended!

PROS: Great experience, wonderful animals
CONS: a bit of a drive---but worth it

Cinemark 20

Mission, KS Movie Theaters 07/09/05: 'Facility is nice---several movies to choose from'

Several movies to choose from. Matinee prices are the best time to go. Have not purchased concessions---so not sure how there prices are. Most of the times that we have been there---there seems to a LOT of teenagers hanging around inside and out. Parents just seem to drop them off for the evening and let them do whatever. They are loud and roudy at times.

PROS: lots of choices
CONS: groups of teenagers hanging around

Amc Town Ctr 20

Leawood, KS Movie Theaters 07/09/05: 'Lots of movies to choose from'

This is our favorite theater. We usually go to the matinee---since it is less expensive. They have stadium seating---so you do not have to worry about seeing over someones head/hat. Consessions are way overpriced---guess that is why some people bring their own. Seems to be well supervised indoors and out---unlike some other theaters we have been to that allow teenagers to hang around and get loud and roudy. Theaters are usually clean.

PROS: Lots to offer, friendly and helpful staff
CONS: parking can be awful---sometimes you have to walk a long way
