Middle Schoolers

At the Firefly Festival, families will join staff for guided tours, discover the secrets of glow-in-the-dark animals, find out ways to help fireflies around your home, and learn to speak firefly with the firefly code game. You'll wrap up the night by joining The Butterfly House entomologists in the park to see real fireflies.  

Bring the whole family for a free concert in the center of the Zoo!

Everyone likes a treat, and the animals at the Saint Louis Zoo are no exception! Visitors can watch these special "egg hunt" enrichment activities and learn about their favorite animals. Plus, kids can participate in a digital scavenger hunt of their own.

Bring the whole family to Purina Farms to celebrate the arrival of Spring! At Purina Farms' popular Springtime Village you'll find baby animals, games, activities, live entertainment and all the fun of the farm. Advance registration is encouraged, but walk-ins are welcome as capacity allows.

Hop on over to The Magic House to meet the Bunny! This spring, The Magic House is inviting families to visit its outdoor pavilion, take photos with the Bunny and spend some time at Bunny Town.

Follow the Bunny Train to the Doggie Sniff & Search at Purina Farms! Bring your family's furry friend to sniff and play while hunting for cheesy-scented tennis balls scattered around the outdoor Main Show Field. 

Enjoy a hot breakfast in the pavilion near the playground, do holiday crafts, go on an egg hunt and get photos taken with the Easter Bunny himself.
