Elephant Rock
Living in St Louis, everyone knows that we probably will have a couple more nice days before the first snow. My family and I just took a day trip out to Elephant Rock State Park and it was wonderful. There are tons of places to have a picnic, restrooms, playground and do not forget about the great walking path with climbing rocks. The kidsinstl.com family highly recommends this outing!

St Louis Family and Children Events from August 17 - August 23

St Louis Family and Kid Activities from August 17 - August 23
WWW.kidsinstl.com Want to check out the best web site for families with kids in St Louis! There are so many things to find on this site: Kids Events Around Town, Kids Birthday Party Venues , Travel Tips, Kids Eat Free Restaurants , Daycares and Preschools , Kids With Special Needs, Daily Activity Calendar, Sensory Recipes, Kids In the Kitchen, Area Parks and much more. Here is a sneak peek of the activities for the week and some info from the site. Just go to http://www.kidsinstl.com/for the full list with details.

Kemp Auto Museum
Last Sunday my family and I went up to Kemp Auto Museum in Chesterfield Valley for their Big Truck Day. This was a free outside event in their parking lot and many of the vehicles open for the kids to explore. There were monster trucks, county salt trucks, big rigs, cement trucks, bulldozers and much more. The museum was also open for viewing, for a fee. The museum is usually open year round and is a place that can entertain car lovers from 3- 100 years old. My 4 yr old could not walk around enough times to see all the cars and the only word I heard out of his mouth for next hour was ‘cool’. Now I must disclose that the admission fees are not cheap ($8 adults, $3 kids) and I am not sure if there are discount coupons out there. However, if you do not mind splurging one weekend it is great family day that will hold the interest of young and old boys.

Children With Special Needs
With school starting this week, many parents of special need children are looking for resources to the best education as possible. In our Special Needs Section, we have a list of resources that consist of Individualized Education Guide, Early Childhood Interventions, Special Education Toys, Therapies, Respite Care and much more. If you know of a good resource or organization that we have forgotten, please drop us an e-mail kidsinstl@yahoo.com.

Resell It Shops
With school starting in just a few weeks many families have started their back to school shopping. A large portion of this shopping is often clothes and accessories for the kids, which can be very expensive. Don’t worry! Knowing the importance of saving money and doing things the economical way during these tight times, we have put together one of the bests lists of resell it shops around town. Check it out and let us know if we forgot your favorite place.

Metro East Classes
There is a wonderful list of classes by category on the St Louis Attractions Indoor/Outdoor Playgrounds and Classes page. Thanks to one of our members, it was brought to our attention that most of our class lists did not have any businesses in the Metro East area. Working to meet the needs of all our members, we have started the research to add more Metro East venues within the different class categories. High Five goes out to Sherry for helping us with this information.

Braeutigam Orchards
Occasionally if I find a new place that was awesome, I like to spread the word about the business. Last week I wanted to take the kids peach picking, but I wanted to try out a new orchard. I went down our list of ‘Pick Your Own’ farms and found Braeutigam Orchards in Belleville , Illinois . We packed up a lunch and headed to the orchard. Braeutigam is actually just a few miles from the Eckert’s Farm in Belleville . We were excited to find out that not only were we able to pick peaches, but they also had blackberries, tomatoes and egg plant available for picking. This friendly family farm has a great play area for the kids that include goats and chickens. If you are looking for a new place to take the kids picking, try out Braeutigam Orchards. Just remember to call any orchard before making the trip to verify they are open for picking.Concert at Kangaroo Kids
It was wonderful meeting everyone at the ‘Star Studded Concert’ Wednesday at Kangaroo Kids. We had a great turnout and Lori put on a concert that kept all the kids dancing. If you were not able to meet this kidsinstl.com sponsored event, keep an eye out for the next one.

Star Studded Concert
We have another wonderful kidsinstl.com fun day planned for July 22, 2009 that we are co-hosting with Kangaroo Kids. The theme for the night is ‘Star Studded Concert’. Dress your little one up as a rock star, princess, pirate or just come in your everyday clothes. The red carpet will roll out at 6:30pm and the paparazzi (Kate Brockmeyer – Kids Being Kids Photography) will be ready to snap some shots of the stars as they enter the building. There will be refreshments and hors d’oeuvres served until 7pm and then the concert will start. Lori Burkhardt a Kindermusik instructor will hold a forty-minute interactive music event filled with singing, dancing and playing instruments. This is one event that you and the kids do not want to miss. It is Peach Time
Have you checked out our Farm Picking Schedule lately? The peaches are ready for picking at many of the orchards and we even found a few places that offer pick your own vegetables.

Healthy You Healthy Planet
We had a complete blast hosting the recycled craft table during the Healthy You Healthy Planet Festival at the Missouri Botanical Garden . We had tons of kids stop by and made well over 300 cool craft projects. However, none of this would have been possible if it was not for the wonderful Girl Scout volunteers. We had girls from the Arnold , Eureka and Chesterfield troops. Thanks girls and we would be honored to have you at our next event.

Happy Fathers Day!
All of us at kidsinstl.com want to send wonderful wishes to all the Dad’s out there.
Here is a nice poem for all you special guys out there. We hope you like it.
His Special Place
Mother is all that is noble and fine,And all that is right and good.She richly deserves every sonnet that’s sungTo her glorious motherhood.And when Mother receives some fresh acclaimThe whole wide world is glad,But away down deep in every heartThere’s a place that is just for Dad.

We may not shower him with praiseNor mention his name in song,And sometimes it seems that we forgetThe joy he spreads as he goes along,Bu tit doesn’t mean that we don’t knowThe wonderful role that he has had.And away down deep in every heartThere’s a place that is just for Dad.
- Author Unknown The Big Day is Just Around The Corner

We also have a great list of the restaurants around town that have a discount night for the kids. If you know of a great meal deal for the kids that we do not have on our list, please let us know at kidsinstl@yahoo.com.

Parks and Water… what a Great Combo
It is getting warmer and warmer each week and the kids are ready to play in the water. We have brought back one of our most popular lists, “Water Play”. We did a ton of driving around and calling and found the local parks around town that have a water play area. In these parks you can find fountains, sprayers or wading pools and most of them are free. If you know of a park that we left off the list, please drop us an e-mail.

Family Fun Day
Kidsinstl.com is sponsoring our first ‘Family Fun Day’ of the summer and we have a ton of fun planned. We will be set up some where near the playground and we will have our banner displayed. There will be a clown doing face painting, craft table, nature scavenger hunts and access to the playground and water area. We will also be providing juice boxes for the kids. This is not a member’s only event, everyone is welcome. Spread the word.

Free Summer Concerts
One of the best things to do as a family that everyone enjoys is going to the Free Summer Concerts around town. What makes these music events great is that they are all free and there is one around town almost every day of the week. We have put together a great list of most of the Summer Concerts around town. It is located on the bottom of the Daily Event Calendar.

Scavenger Hunts
Have you looked at the Educational Interactive Activities page lately? It has always been a cool place to fine flash cards, links to children’s songs and kid friendly web sites. However, we have just put a new section up called Scavenger Hunts. There are two types of hunts, one where you just visually find the item and the other where you collect things. We have posted the scavenger hunt pages we use with our own families to share with you. Try them out and let us know what you think!

St John’s Project
Bedside Crafts with Pediatrics
One thing that we do at fairs, festivals, expos, etc is to give out craft projects made from recycled goods. We have always received positive comments about this program, so we have decided to take it one-step further. With the help of some of our friends at St. John’s Mercy, we have set up a bedside crafts community service program. This program is entirely volunteer and kidsinstl.com supplies all the materials. At least once a week, we visit the pediatrics floor to make some fun projects with the kids. We have had such a positive response from the kids we would like to set up more visits, but we need more volunteers. If volunteering with the pediatrics is something you would like to do, please drop us an e-mail at kidsinstl@yahoo.com and we can give you more information about the screening process.

Earth Day
We want to shine the spotlight on the Earth Day Festival at Forest Park . We hosted a table there today and had a blast. Not only were we able to sign up some new members but we were able to meet many current members. Watch in future newsletter for the next festival we will be attending.
