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.

Pick Your Own – Orchards
Have you taken your family out to pick their own fruit? If you have, you know what a memorable experience it is and if you have not make the trip you will not regret it. We have put together a list of orchards and the fruit they currently have in season. Some of these orchards are a little of a drive, so make the day of it. Go fruit picking, then have a nice lunch out or bring a picnic along. Please remember to always call the orchard the morning you are leaving. The picking availability can change from day to day.

Featured July Web Site
Check out the featured July Web Site, KidZui – The Internet for Kids. This great site is a browser just for kids from 3-12 year that allows surfing the internet fun and safe.

Our Favorite Things
LeapFrog® Learn & Groove® Alphabet Drum- This great drum has been a favorite toy for both my kids for the last year. My 2 yr old will hit the drum and my 4 yr old will tell him the letter. It makes a great learning experience for both.
LeapFrog Fridge Farm Magnetic Animal Set- My big girl has the letter magnetic set and my little guy has these great farm animals. He has his own magnet board in his room and this great learning toy is a ton of fun.
LeapFrog Alphabet Pal® Caterpillar (Colors May Vary) - This is another great toy my kids play with together. My big girl helps the little guy find letters and colors and they giggle and laugh the whole time.
