On February 2, 2026, St. Louis Magazine hosted a Family Playdate, presented by Royal Banks of Missouri. Families enjoyed an exclusive morning with private access to The Magic House, giving kids plenty of space to explore, play, and learn without the usual crowds!
A highlight of the playdate was the popular Thomas the Train exhibit, where children stepped into the world of Thomas & Friends and enjoyed hands-on, interactive fun throughout the morning. Families also appreciated the discounted admission that made the experience accessible and stress free.
In the spirit of giving, attendees supported The Little Bit Foundation by donating coats, hats, scarves, and gloves to help keep children in the St. Louis area warm during the winter months. If you’d still like to donate, check out their Amazon Wish List here.
St. Louis Magazine’s Family Playdates continue to bring together parents, caregivers, and kids from across the metro area for inclusive, low stress fun at some of the region’s favorite family friendly destinations.
