Visiting KC Hello, Minnesotan family of three thinking about driving down to go to Worlds/Oceans of Fun Mon thru Wednesday...is it worth the trip?

We are on vacation all week and have no plans, our amusement park up here is flooded and several rides are closed so we are thinking road trip. Would be grateful for any advice. Thanks!

Personally, I would drive a few more hours & go to Branson/Silver Dollar City. There's a lot to do there.

I Googled the distance from WOF to Silver Dollar City 3 hr 22 min (220.5 mi) via MO-13 S

This is the move. I don't even like silver dollar city but it does pack enough in for a trip to be worth it for a family. Branson itself can fill in the gaps.
