What can we do in downtown St Louis with our 5 year old son? |
Travel Info We will be in town on May 25th for the Cardinals game. We are going to go to the arch. What else is there to do within walking distance of the metrolink so we can leave the car behind. We will be visiting Forest Park (Zoo/Science Center) on Saturday, so we are looking for something else in the area. We will have several hours, probably in the noon-5pm area. Travel Tips Go to the City Museum! It isn't a museum at all, but a building full of places to crawl through and explore. It is very difficult to explain, but you will spend the day there. In addition to the holes, nooks and crannies for climbing into and crawling across the ceiling, etc., there is an aquarium (when Mom and Dad need a break from all that activity), different lengths of body slides from one floor to another. It was a riot, even for a grannie like me. You will be amazed and your young one won't want to leave. Source(s): Been there, done that! Other Travel Tips you can get a bite to eat on the landing they used to have a wax museum down there don't know if they still do other then that there isn't much stuff you can do with a 5 yr old you guys can go to union station that's downtown but you might want to take the metrolink it's not that far but it's a nice lil walk oh ya the city museum is cool go there you can even take a carriage ride around downtown arch/riverfront, the rib fest is that weekend too. http://www.ribamerica.com/stlouis.html... Maybe consider driving out to grant's farm. http://www.grantsfarm.com/ The City Art Museum is great. Lots of hands-on activities. I saw the Bowling/Cardinals hall of fame a few months ago. That was a lot of fun, although five might be a little bit young to bowl in their antique lanes. You could try out Grant's Farm, I had some adventures there as a kid. Admission is free, you just have to pay for parking. May 25 great day!! Its my birthday! anyways..there are many things to do. You can go to the mall downtown by the Edward Jones dome, mike Shannon's, the boat house! its in forest park kids love it, the city museum is awesome! very fun, etc have fun while your here! If you will be in Forest Park on Saturday around lunch then I would head to the boathouse and put your name in for lunch. Then take a paddle boat out on the lake, your son will have a blast. I would go to the science center and go to the Exploradome. This is what is there...... Step into the incredible Marvel漏 Universe and experience all of your favorite Super Heroes and Villains. Over 30 amazing action stations reveal the powerful real-life science within Marvel's legends. Discover how Bruce Banner's emotions transform him into the Incredible Hulk! Dangle from the "Spider Web" and climb the walls, Spider-Man style! Destroy evil with Wolverine, Storm and the rest of the X-Men! Take command of Iron Man's armor and lift a 2007 Ford Edge Crossover!
