✨ Something NEW has arrived in Wonder Why, our Family Collab Lab! ✨

Introducing the Play Together Table, inspired by loose parts play, where everyday materials can become anything a child imagines.

Build, sort, stack, and create side by side as you follow your child's ideas.

Through open-ended exploration, children build creativity, curiosity, and confidence while families experience the joy of playing together. 💜

The Play Together Table was made possible by generous support from the PNC Foundation. by @themagichouse

The Magic House is celebrating its 47th birthday today! 🥳

On October 16, 1979, our Victorian mansion opened its doors. Over the last 47 years, we have had the privilege of providing families in the St. Louis region, and around the country, a place where imaginations are sparked, curiosity is piqued, and problem-solving skills are developed through various hands-on experiences.

What truly sets us apart is our commitment to the power of play. Play isn't just fun; it's the key to creativity, critical thinking and social skills. 💜

Please help us celebrate by sharing your photos and memories! by @themagichouse

HOW did I not know about this?! 😂 
You guys know how much we LOVE The Magic House, but somehow I had NO idea they offered Toddler Time! 
And before anyone says anything… yes, I’m absolutely guilty of not reading all The Magic House emails. 🙈😂 Apparently they’ve been telling me about it this whole time! 
We were invited to check it out, and it was such a fun morning with the kids! 🥹 
Every week features a different theme with hands-on activities for little ones, and you get to explore before the rest of the museum opens! 
Plus, they have complimentary coffee for parents. I mean, SAY LESS. ☕️😂 
And getting to share a little piece of my childhood with the kids in the Take Care with Peanuts exhibit made the morning even sweeter.
If you’re a St. Louis parent with little ones, definitely add Toddler Time to your list!

📍 The Magic House, St. Louis 🗓️ Wednesdays & Thursdays | 9:30–10:30 AM 🎟️ Reservations required

Thanks so much to @themagichouse for inviting us! ❤️
