fun things to do with kids in STL

Bring your littles to Play Street Museum for its regular Tuesday storytime. 

Enjoy a night of Halloween fun topped off with a view you can't find anywhere else! Wear your family friendly costumes and see spooky sights as you make your way to the top of the Arch. Then families can have fun with face painting, balloon animals, pumpkin decorating and treats for kids. 

This Mini Monster Mash is designed for kids 8 and under, so it's full of non-scary fun! Costumed kids will enjoy s'mores as they decorate pumpkins. Everyone gets to take home a treat-filled goody bag.

Costumed kids ages 10 and under are invited to the annual Children's Costume Parade at Westport Plaza, kicking off at 6 p.m. at the patio near World Wide Technology.

Trick or treating is free for children up to age 12 and no registration is necessary. 

Come see the floating pumpkin patch at the South City Family YMCA and enjoy a night of spooky fun! There will be swimming, a water slide, pumpkin decorating, family selfie station, and pumpkins to take home. Come prepared to make a splash. 

Enjoy a fun fall hayride, dress in your Halloween costumes, and gather some sweet treats at the Trunk or Treat at this Halloween-themed event sponsored by the city of Valley Park. There will also be The Bubble Bus, a pumpkin maze, bonfire, face painting, and a special showing of Hocus Pocus after dark.
