Join St. Louis Children's Hospital at the Saint Louis Zoo for activities that teach children why it's important for people - and zoo animals - to take care of their bodies.
At Just Like You at the Zoo, children collect animal cards at four stations throughout the Zoo. After the cards are collected, they win a prize. Register for this event at the north or south entrances of the Zoo.
Just Like You at the Zoo will be held from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on May 22 at the Saint Louis Zoo.
