Babies and Toddlers

Enjoy stories, songs, rhymes and fun with the Saint Louis Public Library at Citygarden during Citygarden Storytime.

Come on out to the Ruth Porter Mall Park for a Storybook Walk Party! Meet at the Delmar/DeBaliviere trailhead for a group read of the new story for the month, “Another Word for Neighbor” by Angela Pham Krans, and outdoor activities.

Families can explore bubble play, outdoor art, parachute games, sports activities, STEM Lab explorations and more, all designed to highlight how play and reading shape children’s growth.

Join Ms. Amanda in the Makerspace at the Edwardsville Children's Museum for a fun, lively Dance Party. The toddler-friendly tunes will accompany free play time and musical instrument exploration. 

Stomp, chomp, and roar at the Dino-Mite Dino Night! Kids can party like a dinosaur, enjoy dinosaur-themed crafts, games, and sensory stations. Plus dig for fossils! Who knows, maybe guests will even spot a dinosaur! Enjoy playing inside and outside the museum at this special event.

It's the food truck event that started them all! Local food trucks gather for an evening of friends, fun, live music and plenty of great food at Sauce Food Truck Fridays. St. Louis' favorite mobile restaurants will be dishing out fresh fare and local brews in Tower Grove Park.

Toddlers and their grownups can learn, create and play during Toddler Thursday at Mastodon State Historic Site. Each session explores a different topic related to nature and includes activities and a craft.
