Parent with Child

On the first Friday of the month kids are invited to spend some FREE time getting fit at Fit Kid: Free Kid at The Magic House. Kids 12 and under who complete a fitness challenge upon arrival can earn free admission to the event. Registration is required. 

Kids can once again go to town learning about safety because Kirkwood Safety Town has returned to The Magic House. Co-created by The Magic House and the City of Kirkwood, this interactive exhibit is designed to educate the region's youngest residents about safety. Kirkwood Safety Town features a child-sized neighborhood including a fire station, police station, electric company, farmers market, park, house, and even a train station! Safety Town also features a bike helmet-fitting station and scheduled visits from community helpers, including firefighters and police officers. 

Preschoolers can learn, play, explore and grow at the Saint Louis Art Museum's Wee Weekend program for its youngest visitors. Join in on the adventure as your little one discovers new ways of interacting with art and each other. 

Grab a spot and stomp on over to make dinosaur slime! Kiddos will discover that making slime out of a few simple ingredients leads to tons of fun. 

From noon to 4 p.m. in the Museum at the Gateway Arch, visitors can earn a unique "Night Skies" patch with a National Park Service Ranger, take a selfie in the star-studded photo booth, and explore the constellations with the flight crew from the Challenger Learning Center! Nature Cat will also be at the park to celebrate National Kids to Parks Day. 

Art Fair at Laumeier is a nationally acclaimed fine art and craft fair at Laumeier Sculpture Park featuring food and beverage vendors, hands-on art activities for kids, live music and more. Now in its 32nd year, the fair is a Mother's Day Weekend tradition in St. Louis. 

A 70-foot dragon and lion dances open this springtime celebration that includes a Grand Parade and acrobats, theater, martial arts, traditional artwork, tea ceremonies and authentic regional cuisine.
