family fun in St Louis 2023

Kids can climb into the driver's seat and explore big trucks - maintenance trucks, emergency vehicles, and machines and learn about how they work in the community. Everyone is invited to come in costume and enjoy some spooky treats.

Do you need a creative activity for your kids on a day when school's out? Yucandu Art Studio offers No-School Workshops for kids in grades kindergarten through 5th.

Who’s that kid that can travel through time? Xavier Riddle! Follow the adventures of three friends as they travel back in time to learn from real-life inspirational heroes when they were kids at the Xavier Riddle and the Secret Museum exhibit, opening at The Magic House on September 20.

Your child can bring their favorite stuffed animal to the Brentwood Library for this special story time with songs and crafts, and then leave their stuffie overnight at the library to pick up the next day. The stuffies will have many adventures, and when you pick them up the next day, your child will be given photos of all the fun activities their stuffed animal took part in. 

Have some wild fun with your kids at HullabaZoo at the Saint Louis Zoo! These themed afternoons are full of family activities unique to the Zoo. Enjoy live entertainment you can dance to, and kid favorites like the Bubble Bus.

Try something new to kick off your summer weekends at Laumeier Sculpture Park's Finally Friday Series. Your family can enjoy some of your favorite food and beverage trucks onsite at the beautiful park from 4-8 p.m.

Returning to the Saint Louis Zoo is the bird show “Winging It,” presented in partnership with World Bird Sanctuary. Birds will take the stage at the Lichtenstein Sea Lion Arena. In this amazing, free-flying presentation, a variety of exotic and native birds will demonstrate their natural abilities, and some will even soar over the audience.
