Kid's Corner
Downstairs in the Welcome Center, young visitors will love the newly expanded Kid's Korner. One of the main attractions is A-Bend-A-Go, a three-story corkscrew slide.
Whit's End
You will also get a chance to visit Whit's End, which is a turn-of-the-century soda fountain straight from the popular Adventures in Odyssey audio and video series.
KYDS Radio
Your child can record his or her voice on an actual Adventures in Odyssey episode written just for KYDS Radio. The complimentary CD you'll take home is sure to become a family keepsake.
Camp-What-A-Nut
Even toddlers get a chance to play safely in the room we designed especially for them – Camp-What-A-Nut.
