MATS: Mahaffie Activities for Today's Students

Mahaffie staff members have been working with the Olathe School District to align these free weekly lessons with Kansas curricular standards. This week the lesson is The Civil War and Memorial Day

Click here to view the free Nearpod lesson.

The optional field trip opportunity is offered from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Mahaffie's historic grounds with activities aligned to the weekly Nearpod lesson. This week students will be able to answer the question, "How do we honor fallen soldiers?"

Please be aware the cannon may be fired during your visit to the farm. Students watching the loading demonstration will have plenty of warning so they may cover their ears if needed.

Admission for students is $5. One adult will be admitted free with each paid student. The adults admitted free may choose to pay $2 for a stagecoach ride. Additional adults are $5. Children ages four and under are free. Picnics are encouraged!

*Drop-ins are welcome, but prior registration is appreciated! Registering ahead helps us plan for staffing needs.
