Smoky Hill Museum Saline County Kansas
The Smoky Hill Museum has interesting hands-on activities that are sure to fascinate you, like this Van de Graaf generator. Good fun activity for both young and old alike.
There is Tornado Simulator with lots of information about weather related phenomena. Where else can you turn a switch and watch a little simulated tornado form? It’s a good, fun way to learn about tornadoes without actually being in one.
You can also see a replica of the first home in Salina, a dug-out seen below.
.
There are over 30,000 artifacts in this Museum. You can review all the exhibits at your leisure and get educated on the history of this area.
