This is the only museum in the country solely dedicated to WWI
The tower was constructed as a memorial in 1926
The view of Kansas City from the tower was great
The glass bridge spans the field of 9,000 Poppies
Each poppy represents 1,000 soldiers killed in combat in WWI
We loved all the exhibits here because we had just studied WWI in history this year
There were lots of interactive exhibits for kids
This sign from WWI became an icon for all of the twentieth century
There was so much to see - three hours really wasn't long enough!
Darby stands in the replica of a crater like those found all over Europe in WWI
Grayson wants to hold the tower in his hand!
Cool kids strike a pose
Mom joins in on the pose!
