Join us- bring a friend and a snack to share!
The Children’s Small Mall is an opportunity for children between 3 and 13 years old to do their own holiday shopping for family, teachers, and friends in a secure environment.
Children love this event, as it allows them to pick out something they think their loved ones will want without the presence of a parent, and the gift comes from the heart. Of course, the biggest challenge is keeping the selected gift item a secret.
For first-time shoppers and parents, it is important to know what to expect, so our “Head Elf” explains the process.
Prior to entering the shopping area, a gift list is completed by the parent with names, ages, and the dollar amount for each gift on the list. The gifts are $5 or $7 prepaid. Our volunteer elves escort each little shopper with their gift list into the shopping area where the gifts are arranged according to category and price. For the shopper, it can be exciting and overwhelming trying to make a decision on that perfect gift.
We have a wide selection of items to choose from. For women, jewelry is popular, along with scarves, candles, serving dishes, and so much more. For dad, granddad, or uncle (the hardest to buy for), there are tools, flashlights, calendars, and desk accessories, just to name a few gifts. For the sweet tooth in the family, there are sweets and baking gift sets. We have teen gifts as well as children’s toys, books, and stuffed animals for the siblings.
When their shopping is completed, each child receives a bag of Magic Reindeer Food, a free ride on the 1913 carousel (photo op), movies, and access to the Kid’s Craft Corner to make some awesome ornaments.
While waiting for your little shoppers, parents can relax with a complimentary cup of hot chocolate and browse through the crafts, gifts, and baked goods available for purchase. Not to be missed are our three raffles, the Ladies’ Basket filled with items for mom, the sports theme with tons of sport items, and the kids’ raffle loaded with toys, books, and stuffed animals.
For additional information email or call the museum at (913) 682-1331.
Bring the kids and grab some friends, enjoy a day at the estate getting pictures with Santa and Mrs. Clause (1:00-4:00PM), decorate a Christmas cookie (11:00am-3:00pm), and steal a picture with the Grinch (12:00pm-2:00pm) while you shop for unique Christmas gifts!

Come join us to learn how we keep the shelter running as smoothly as it does! We are scheduling these monthly orientation and training sessions to help introduce individuals and families that would like to help the shelter by walking dogs, feeding shifts, cleaning shift, or just giving some time in their day to help socialize the animals. This orientation gives you the in depth information you need to help us as a volunteer up at the shelter. We understand that time might be tight, which is why we created this event to help you decide how you might want to help, and which shifts might be best for you! We have so many different things that we do up there that are always needing another set of hands to help with! This week it's cleaning up the yard and making it look welcoming to visitors, next week it might be pulling out and steam cleaning all the cat trees. There's always something up here to do, and when we're finished, there's always loving on the pets as well! Please consider joining us. Make sure you register on VMIS, please search in opportunities under Stray Facility Volunteer and then apply. Once you RSVP, please reach out to us to give us your name, and we'll have a few simple questions for you!
We look forward to meeting you all!
