American Kennel Club Museum of the Dog

Reviewed By greenhorn33 - Saint Louis

This museum is interesting if you love dogs. It primarily consists of paintings and mini-figurines but they are fun to look at. I think this museum would be more impactful for young children if they had toys that were dog themed or other playful type items for kids.

Part problem solving, part adrenaline, end-to-end fun!

The facility was modern and clean. Friendly staff provided us with a prompt start. The game we played (Casino) was enjoyed by our entire family, with everybody able to contribute with clues and ideas, including our two 13 year-olds. While we didn't need much help, there was a point where we stalled and the young lady monitoring us remotely, stepped in with just the right level of clue to get us back on track. The next time we have the family all together again, we are going back.

Myseum

Discovery Center for children and their families. Fun and unique exhibits like a dinosaur dig, vet clinic, interactive video wall, slide with radar, magnetic ball wall and a giant UFO maze...just to name a few.

Reviewed By ShamrockGlade - Cuba, Missouri

My wife and I took our four-year-old grandson here for a couple of hours one morning. He had a great time! The science component was beyond him, but he loved all the activities. He happily ran from the bounce house to the slide to digging...MoreThank you for the great review! Glad we could help with the extra long nap.

Sachs Butterfly House

Butterfly exhibit promoting an understanding of the nature through the world of insects.

Reviewed By stlcardinalsfamily - Peoria, Illinois

The morpho madness event is the time to go! Beautiful bright blue butterflies everywhere! definitely hot in there even in February so dress accordingly.

My only negative is that I wish there were more exhibits or learning stations for children.

Staff/volunteers do a great job. You can tell the truly appreciate the butterflies!

Castlewood State Park

In the early 1900s, the area that’s now Castlewood State Park was a popular retreat for partying St. Louisans. The dance clubs are gone, but the winding Meramec River and the lush valley that surrounds it remain. The park has hiking and mountain biking trails that range from those great for first-time riders to ones that even the most experienced will return to time after time. The park is considered one of the best mountain biking locations in the St. Louis area. Good fishing, broad meadows filled with wildlife, and plenty of recreational facilities make the park a favorite for people who want an adventure or just to get away.

Castlewood has really good hiking and biking trails with some great bluff overlooks. Not many "improvements" so the park is pretty much set up for hiking or river wading. It does have one playground for the kids.

World Bird Sanctuary

Reviewed By auggiemctavish - appleton

Very interesting and worthwhile. This place is doing a good job with injured birds. I spoke with one of the workers, they were going to send two baby cranes back to a preserve in a couple of weeks. I would go back to see the educational program they have.

Powder Valley Conservation Nature Center

Reviewed By barkus1968 - Saint Peters

Missouri has a wonderful network of State Parks and Conservation Lands. This Nature Center is one of the jewels of the Conservation Department. This area provides easy trails and longer more moderately challenging paved hikes. The hills provide a nice challenge during light walking. The indoor exhibits are also worth the time. Plus, I like the little library.

We've had pleasant times with the grand kids at the Des Peres Park. It's always clean and a pleasure. It's lovely during the day, whether walking our dogs or spending time with the grand kids. It's also fun when they have summer concerts there.

Edgar M. Queeny County Park

Reviewed By Deana M - Saint Louis, Missouri

Great place to hike and picnic. Lots of trails and well kept park. Just a very enjoyable green space. It has many trails and they are well marked. Some are thru the woods and others are in an open area. This park also has a great snow sledding hill in the winter.
