Your kids can bring their favorite stuffies to the St. Louis Aquarium for a little TLC during the Stuffie Care Clinic. During the clinic, kids become little veterinarians – giving their stuffies a gentle check-up – while they learn how animals are cared for by the staff at the aquarium. Special guest "surgeons" from City Sewing Room will be on hand to patch up any rips or tears to beloved stuffies too!
