It's the Not-So-Haunted House that is oh-so-fun, where storybook characters come alive! Kids are invited to dress in their most "boo-tiful" Halloween costumes and have a ghoulishly good time going on a spook-tacular scavenger hunt throughout The Magic House to find trick-or-treat locations and seeing their favorite storybook characters.
Kids can work on existing gym skills, learn new skills or just play around during Open Gym at Miss Kelly's Gym in Creve Coeur.
A St. Louis family favorite – the Children's Garden at the Missouri Botanical Garden – will close for the season October 31 - November 1. Children are invited to have an adventure exploring all the Garden has to offer before the gates close.
