Celebrate National Kids to Parks Day at the First Missouri State Historic Site's annual Historical Children's Festival, where you can experience life and play as children did in the 1820s.

Children can pick up a passport and journey through the 1820s while participating in period hands-on activities, including butter churning, candle dipping, craft demonstrations, fire starting, quill pen writing and more.
