New St. Louis Place to Check Out…read more We just experienced the best date night activity at St. Louis Virtual Reality in South St. Louis County. At STL Virtual Reality, you can choose from a variety of VR games to play for 10 minutes at time. Each player wears a headset and holds controllers in each hand. You can immediately see and hear the game. We ran around a room, just the 2 of us, without running into the walls or each other (mostly). We started with a battle royale SHMOOTER game against one another. I could not get a head-shot for the life of me and lost so badly. We switched maps for our second game and I finally was getting the hang of it. Ducking behind crates, running through portals, and riding shipping containers up and down. I still lost, but I was having so much fun! Our last game, we worked together to defeat radioactive monsters. They were coming from every direction and then RADIOACTIVE ANIMALS escaped from the zoo. Honestly, worked up a sweat on this last one. *Use code GET25OFF to save 25% on your first game. *Buy one game, get your second game HALF OFF! *Visit on October 19th for FREE plays of their most popular game SHMOOTER!

I took piano lessons with Tim Townsend from ages 8-12. As I've grown older, I have realized how…read moreinappropriate he was as a teacher. He would constantly push his extremely conservative ideologies on me (yes, even as a 10 year old!). At the time I didn't realize what was happening, but sometimes 10 minutes of our 30 minute lessons would consist of him trash-talking the democratic president, and telling me my parent's opinions were incorrect (who are both rather liberal). I don't care what others' political beliefs are, but I cannot believe he was pushing his political agenda on me as a submissive and quiet child. It disgusts me to think now that my parents paid for those lessons for years. Not to mention he did not put any effort into improving my piano skills the last 2+ years of my lessons. By age 10 I was over the piano and had checked out, and he made no effort to inspire me to improve, it seemed he was just comfortable taking my parents' money for a few more years until I finally quit. He took that time as an opportunity to spew his far-right beliefs into my ears. Not to mention he is literally a climate change denier and hardcore Trump supporter, but that is beside the point. It is extremely inappropriate to push those beliefs on a child. I would highly recommend NO ONE sends their child to learn from him. Maybe his other teachers are alright, but I would never support his business.

What I like about the Magic House is that it really feels like you're visiting a house that's a…read morelittle bit magical. There are fun things to discover in every room. Mostly, this is a science center and a children's museum all rolled into one space. Kids can have fun and not even know they're learnin' a little somethin'. Everyone wins here. Each room has a different theme or topic, and there are interactive, hands-on things for kids to engage with. I would say that the perfect age range for the Magic House is 2 to 10. Maybe 11 or 12 year olds would have fun, too. But for the most part, this museum is for the young kids. There are so many things for young children to touch, see, climb on and explore. I could see spending a few hours here if I had younger children. There's a Luckey climber on the first floor that kids can climb up to go to the second floor. If you're a parent or caregiver who doesn't care to follow their child up the climber, there are stairs next to it for your convenience. If you visit during nice weather, you might find the outdoor area open. There's a small splash pad water feature here on the patio, which lots of kids were playing in. There are also yard games like giant Connect Four and foam blocks to play with.

I was searching the Harvest Hosts site for places to park in the Saint Louis area when the Gateway…read moreGrizzlies stadium popped up. And as luck would have it, they had a game on. And bonus, it is Two Dollar Tuesday. Two dollar tickets, two dollar hot dogs and two dollar beers (Natty Light). So after work, I headed to the park where I showed my ticket to the ticket taker and spent a couple of hours watching the game. It was a slightly rainy drizzly night with lightning in the area, I was a little surprised that they didn't call the game until the sixth inning! Lots of fan engagement and giveaways. And maybe it's unintentional or maybe I misheard it? When a jet plane took off from the nearby Saint Louis City Airport, they played the Top Gun "bong" sound. I ended up not staying in the lot overnight. While it's free and level, it's way out in the middle of nowhere, in East Saint Louis and I'd be sticking out with no cover. Sounds like a good opportunity for trouble. But with others around? Sure, it's fine. [Review 1269 of 2024 - 203 in Illinois - 22292 overall]
