Did you know that February 14th is St. Louis’s birthday? The Missouri History Museum has created a new festival to celebrate, featuring activities, food, music, and fun. Families will want to attend on Saturday when the Red and Black Brass Band kicks off the festivities at 10 a.m. Then head to the History Clubhouse for storytelling at 10:30 a.m. This program is trilingual so everyone can participate—offered in English, Spanish, and American Sign Language.

All-day activities include playing classic backyard games like washers and cornhole, exploring the sensory table to touch artifacts that represent St. Louis and its symbols, and crafts like making birthday hats and custom flags for your neighborhood. Don’t miss the special pop-up food vendors for lunch, and browse the wares of local makers for gifts and souvenirs of the day. Explore the World’s Fair and Collected exhibits, including a new gallery that showcases things “Made in St. Louis.” The St. Louis Birthday Bash is happening February 14th and 15th at the Missouri History Museum.  LEARN MORE

This Week's Top Posts
Ninja Central is for Kids of All Ages and Abilities

From the moment they step onto a ninja training course, kids snap into activation mode – using their athletic skills to jump, climb, and balance their way through physical challenges and activating their minds to out-maneuver the puzzle of obstacles that stand in their way of victory. That combination is a powerful one and equips kids with the confidence, persistence, self-esteem, and creative thinking skills they need throughout their lives. And now, with the opening of Ninja Central, a top-tier ninja training facility in Maryland Heights, even more young athletes will get the chance to reach their full potential.

The St. Louis Children’s Choirs Give Every Singer the Chance to Shine on Stage

Something beautiful happens every time a child performs their favorite song. Even if they stumble over a lyric or tumble off key, the joy they find in exploring their musical journey can be felt by those lucky enough to listen. When hundreds of these young voices come together on one stage, that’s when something truly magical happens.
