Family Fun Geared Toward an Entire Family Ages 8 to Adult Near Branson, Missouri

While Branson's claim to fame has historically been a Christian and country focused domain, the city expanded its shows and entertainment to include a larger audience. Considered by some as the "Vegas of the Midwest without the sex", Branson, Missouri, offers many family oriented, kid friendly shows as well. This article shares a sampling of kid friendly entertainment that delights adults as well.

Shows

First of all, choosing a family oriented show that engages children, youth, teens, and adults has always been tricky. Yet, there are two shows in particular that were geared toward all age ranges.

One of the Branson shows is a magician / illusionist named Kirby VanBurch. Kirby has won the Merlin Award more often than Houdini, and awes his audiences with class. His featured guest is a Royal white tiger that magically appears on stage. In addition, he makes a real helicopter appear on stage in less than three seconds. The Kirby VanBurch Show also offers a subtle Christian message. For example, during the show Kirby involves a younger child to help with an act. Afterward, Kirby gave the child a necklace with a biblical saying on it, like the one he wears. His mix of working fire and water into his illusions makes for an excellent family friendly show.
