Attractions: Mini (not many!) museum exhibits. Worlds Fair in 1904, St. Louis before and the fair. They have temporary exhibits, a NFL Football Hall of Fame exhibit is there for a few more months
Price: Free, but you have to pay for special exhibits, the football one was $12
How we got there: Drove
Best For: visiting kids13 and up - but all kids in St. Louis should go to see what happened in their town.
Rating: 3 (would have been 2 but they have really good sugar cookies in the cafe)
Most Interesting thing I learned: Ice Cream cones were invented at the St. Louis Worlds Fair.
St. Louis History Museum
This museum is small, and you can look at it all in an hour or so. It was good to see the worlds fair stuff. There is a section on musicians from St. Louis and you can listen to their songs. There was a section on baseball, which is big in St. Louis. There are little play stations for the younger kids. At one they can build a fighter jet out of plastic parts.
