Middle Schoolers

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.

Chalkfest is a sidewalk chalk contest open to all ages and all skill levels. Help decorate the lower parking lot of Bluebird Park in Ellisville with your own original masterpiece! 

Parents can enjoy a night out as kids enjoy a night in at The Lodge. The night will include fun games and crafts, and each night has a different theme.

Local historian and author Elizabeth Pickard will share her new children's book, Ruth's River Dreams, and talk about her experience writing it at this virtual program through the Missouri History Museum. 

Twilight Tuesday Concerts from the Missouri History Museum are virtual this fall! Your family can tune in on Tuesday evenings from the comfort of your home or backyard for an online concert streamed live on Zoom or Facebook Live. The theme of this fall's concert series is music of the Mighty Mississippi.
