City Museum, St Louis, MO

This is the seven story slide, you climb up a spiral staircase to the top of the building and slide down seven spiral stories! Wow! It is fast and dizzying This Sea Monster greets visitors at the door, Yep, totally recycled materials, those are shock absorbers painted by kids.


You can barely see the pipe organ in the shaft between these two buildings. When the organ plays while you are coming down that long slide, it is really cool!

Me and the kids at the magic show! It was silly but fun!






We spent the day at the City Museum. Such an interesting, active, creative place to spend the day. This was my second visit and we saw things we didnt even know were there. Like the seven story slide which used to be the chute in a shoe factory that they would send shoes downstairs in the space between two buildings-with the ginormous pipe organ which plays while you are sliding down the slide!
