Virtual Home School Days presented by the Missouri History Museum allow virtual learners across the St. Louis region the ability to tune in to lessons appropriate for individual leaners, those in a learning pods, and traditional home schoolers. Home School Days are held monthly, with new themes each month, and are free. 

Put your thinking hat on and join in the Family Fun GPS Scavenger Hunt at Babler State Park, where you'll discover new areas of the park as well as some history. Families will work together with a GPS unit to find areas around the park.

Need a break from virtual learning screen time? Schedule a family field trip to MADE for Kids! On Friday mornings, a limited number of families will be able to enjoy a special field trip where educators from The Magic House, MADE for Kids will lead them through fun, interactive STEAM learning experiences. Each family will have their own workspace to ensure social distancing, and families are welcome to stay and play after their field trip. 

Learn about Missouri's black bears at this in-person, outdoor event at Babler Memorial State Park in Wildwood. Social distancing guidelines must be practiced. 

See the eagles, owls, hawks, falcons and reptiles that live at the World Bird Sanctuary from the luxury of your own vehicle at Drive Through with a Twist. Hot pretzels will be available for all pre-registered guests.

Gather around a toasty campire for an enchanted evening of not-so-spooky Halloween storybook readings. Children are encouraged to wear costumes.

Enjoy Wee Wednesday online from the Saint Louis Art Museum! Caregivers looking for something creative to do with little ones will enjoy reading a book, looking at works from the Art Museum's collection and creating their own artwork with materials found in your home.
