Peppa Pig is making a big splash in St. Louis! Visit the St. Louis Aquarium from 10am to 2pm to meet and take a photo with Peppa! Don’t forget to bring your camera to capture the special day. It will be more fun than a muddy puddle! This will take place inside the Aquarium and is included with admission.

This FREE experience is from 12pm-4pm and is an afternoon singing, games, learning fun songs, meeting other singers, snacks, and a performance for friends and family at 3:30pm.
