The Healthy History Lovin’ Halloween Party
*The event has already taken place on this date: Thu, 10/26/2023
Come to the Missouri History Museum for a movin’ and groovin’ candy-free Halloween party! Kids are encouraged to wear their costumes while they participate in museum exhibit trick-or-treating (candy free); Halloween-inspired spooktacular stretches; and active fun with our community collaborators, Healthworks! Kids Museum and Reedy Press. Make sure to stop by the trick-or-treat table featuring the book Missouri Weird and Wonderful by author Amanda Doyle and illustrator Dan Zettwoch. Make your own creepy, quirky crafts—and if you are extra brave, we will have limited access to our family-friendly Haunted History Clubhouse at 30-minute intervals. If you’re up for a later evening, stick around for the annual Ghost Stories and Guitars concert from 6:30pm to 8:00pm.
Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.
Costumes are welcome for all, but please do not bring pretend weapons.
