How do you support attractions while at home? Share it with us on Facebook and Instagram!

1. Check out Edwardsville Children’s Museum’s Facebook page to participate in Project Storytime and learn about purchasing one of their incredibly fun Learning Bundles (pro-tip: they restock on May 2^nd!).
2. In need of a field trip? Us too. The Eugene Field House Museum is offering virtual tours online right now! Choose your date, your time, pay the admission fee, and you are ready to tour!
3. Another interesting tour to check off your list is the Virtual Museum Experience from the Economy Museum at The St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank. You can watch an online lesson and a few mini-tours as a part of this experience. You can also watch a full-length tour of the entire museum!

6. Even though the St. Louis Cardinals’ baseball season is currently on hold, that doesn’t mean you have to completely deprive yourself of all things baseball. Make sure you keep up with the Cardinals’ news during this downtime!
7. Six Flags St. Louis keeps the fun rolling with downloadable activity sheets that they entire family can do together.
8. The Old Spaghetti Factory recently reopened for #curbside pickup! In fact, you can get 15% off your first order when you order here. Enjoy a St. Louis favorite from the comfort of your own home!
9. Got a sweet tooth? The St. Louis Union Station Soda Fountain posts shake recipes galore on their Facebook page and Instagram page so you can make some incredibly satisfying shakes from home (P.S. you may need some help finishing them)!
