St. Louis Family

Extended your holiday fun into the evening at Magical Nights at The Magic House! Enjoy the twinkling light display after dark, story time with Mrs. Claus, cookies and milk, plus photos with Santa in his socially distanced sleigh. The entire museum is open for this limited-capacity event.

Your kids can meet some of their favorite winter characters, like the Snow Sisters (think Frozen), the Ice Queen, and the Snowman at West County Center.

Kids can see Santa, make holiday crafts, take spins on the carousel, enjoy special entertainers, decorate cookies, and more at Christmas at the Carousel. 

Make new holiday memories or start a new holiday family tradition with the Rep's first-ever production of A Christmas Carol. At long last, the ghosts of Ebenezer Scrooge's past, present and future have caught up with him. Now London's most infamous miser must take a transformative journey as he faces the worst parts of himself and discovers unexpected redemption.

Join Edwardsville Children's Museum on December 5th to celebrate the holidays! Families will have lots of fun and lots to do at its Arctic Express event!

Take memorable photos with Santa at The Missouri Botanical Garden's Garden Glow light display. During these special dates and times, you and your family can take photos with Santa at the Linnaean Plaza in Santa's Sleigh.

Hey Sugar Plums! Grab a spot at Play Street Museum for the Nutcracker Ballet Party! In addition to playtime, kids will listen to a story, decorate a wooden nutcracker figure and more.
