City Museum
City Museum's eclectic exhibits blend fun for kids with constant surprises for adults. Housed in the 600,000-square-foot former International Shoe Company, the museum offers an impressive variety of attractions, including an old bank vault, working vintage shoelace machines, an Enchanted Caves area built into the factory's spiral conveyor tunnel system, an aquarium, a skateless park play area, giant slides, and an interactive sculpture called MonstroCity where kids can crawl, jump and climb through a maze of materials (314/231-2489; citymuseum.org).
