It’s FAQ Friday! 😊
Q: What are the exhibits like at inspireU?
A: Imagine a miniature town built just for kids! Each exhibit is designed like a local business, inviting children to play, pretend, and explore in hands-on environments that spark curiosity. From a quilting shop and veterinary clinic to a grocery store and more, every corner of our town encourages creativity, teamwork, and real-world learning through purposeful play.

Our inspireU team has had a great time working with intern Jaidyn Schomp, Population Health Management major at Missouri Western State University!

As Jaidyn recently shared, “I’ve truly enjoyed my time as an intern at inspireU. It’s been such a rewarding experience seeing children learn about healthy lifestyles through the unique and playful experiences offered here. As I prepare to graduate, I’m grateful for everything I’ve learned and for the opportunity to be part of a team that’s making a positive impact in this community.”
