My family LOVED this. There is several interactive displays. We studied the history of coins and our son was fascinated by how much a million dollars actually looks like. We would probably go again.

We stopped here after touring the WW1 museum. It's free to enter, and you have to go through security check, similar to airport security. It was a nest little museum, I especially liked that you could actually watch them count and pack the money up...Read More

A must visit when visiting KC/Missouri. It’s next to WWI memorial. We were really surprised that we had missed this museum last time when we were in KC. It’s very informative and interesting. It has displays of coins from the 17th century until now. It’s...Read More

The Kansas City Fed is a great place to visit. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable of the history and current state of the Fed. Unlike the Mints, kids under 7 can go in and take the tour as well.

We took our lower-elementary-age kids to the Money Museum, and honestly we thought they might last about ten minutes before losing interest. We ended up staying for about 45 minutes and they had a great time! There was lots to see and do, and the...Read More

Very cool place with some interactions. Lots of reading but kid friendly stuff. 7+ I would guess. You have to walk through metal detectors. They take keeping the facility safe very serious. I mean there could be literal billions in that place. They literally have 40 million...Read More

Anyone over age 18 will need a valid photo ID to enter. There are several interactive pieces of the museum that kept the kids busy. The bag of shredded money we picked up at the end was a hit with the kids as well.
