Overland Park Parents: This Is The Summer Adventure Your Kids Have Been Asking For
You know the feeling. Your kids have been asking for something — something bigger than the backyard, more exciting than another trip to the same park. They want an adventure that actually feels like one. This summer, you can give them exactly that.
Roars & Rainbows at KC Pumpkin Patch is the event your kids have been waiting for without even knowing it existed. And for Overland Park families, it's practically in your backyard.
Because "Where Are We Going?" Deserves a Great Answer
This June, KC Pumpkin Patch is hosting Roars & Rainbows — a one-of-a-kind summer event where dinosaurs and unicorns take over the farm. We're not talking about a few small displays. This is 20+ life-size dinosaurs and 20+ larger-than-life unicorns spread across wide open spaces, with interactive exhibits, live encounters, and photo ops that make every turn a moment worth capturing.
The combination sounds wild. That's because it is — and kids love it.
What Your Family Gets With One Ticket
No need to budget for extras to have a full experience. One admission covers:
20+ life-size dinosaurs — massive, impressive, and worth every "whoa" your kids will say
20+ magical unicorns — bringing a completely different kind of wonder to the same day
Interactive exhibits and live encounters that keep kids engaged from start to finish
Photo opportunities throughout — expect a very full camera roll
Wide open spaces to run, explore, and roam
60+ farm adventures included with admission — so the fun doesn't stop once you've seen the dinos and unicorns
Want to go the extra mile? The Plus Pass upgrade adds a dino or unicorn ride, paintball, and fossil mining. Or book a Highland Cow Cuddling session with Ollie and Ruby for a calmer, cozy addition to the day (advance reservation required, ages 3+).
Your Weekend, Already Planned
Event dates are select Saturdays and Sundays in June:
June 13 & 14
June 20 & 21

Hours run 10am to 5pm, which is plenty of time to take everything in without feeling like you're sprinting through it. For Overland Park families, you're close — which means less time in the car and more time doing the fun stuff.
A couple of bonus perks worth circling on your calendar:
Grandparents get in free June 13 & 14 with a paid child admission
Dads get in free June 20 & 21 — perfect for Father's Day weekend
