Museum visitors are invited to bring in unused school supplies September 1-3 during regular museum hours to benefit KidSmart, a not-for-proftit organization, that ensures children and their classrooms in the metro St. Louis Area have the basic tools for learning.
The top ten most needed items are:
• Crayons
• Markers
• Paper
• Pencils
• Glue
• Backpacks
• Two-pocket folders
• Colored Pencils
• Supply Boxes

And since giving back to the community is such a cool thing to do, kids who donate school supplies on Monday, September 3 can cool off with free ice cream courtesy of North Star Frozen Treats!
