The State of Missouri is celebrating its Bicentennial in 2021, with Statehood Day commemorated on Tuesday, August 10, 2021.
Celebrate with us by enjoying a frozen treat for you and your pup! Human guests will receive an insulated pouch with ice cream bars for people and frosty paws for their dogs. As this is a drive-through event, guests will drive up to the Purina Farms Visitor Center, get their treats, and leave the property.
No charge to guests. Event will run from 10AM-2PM on August 10. The Visitor Center is closed on this day.
It's the Not-So-Haunted House that is oh-so-fun, where storybook characters come alive! Kids are invited to dress in their most "boo-tiful" Halloween costumes and have a ghoulishly good time going on a spook-tacular scavenger hunt throughout The Magic House to find trick-or-treat locations and seeing their favorite storybook characters.
Get into the Halloween spirit with some spooky fun and celebrate with the animals at Grant's Farm. Enjoy Halloween tram rides featuring Halloween lights, spooky scenes, live actors, scare zones, a Halloween-themed show, monster mash party and more. Costumes are encouraged.
Kids can work on existing gym skills, learn new skills or just play around during Open Gym at Miss Kelly's Gym in Creve Coeur.
The Best of Missouri Market at the Missouri Botanical Garden features more than 150 vendors offering handcrafted items, locally produced food, native plants, herbs, live music and local brews, plus a two-acre Kid's Corner with farm animals (like llamas, alpacas and sheep!), circus performers, face painting, crafts, and a pumpkin patch with decorating let by Perennial.
