Story Time Magic

Step into the enchanting world of childhood stories at The Magic House, St. Louis Childrenโ€™s Museumโ€™s new 5,000-square-foot permanent exhibit, Story Time Magic. Story Time Magic is designed to inspire a love of reading and language by immersing visitors in a world of favorite childhood stories and books. The exhibit provides a playful learning environment where children use their imaginations and connect with stories in meaningful and memorable ways!

Story Time Magic was made possible by a generous lead gift from the Crawford Taylor Foundation with additional support provided by the Henry A. Jubel Foundation and Nance Frost.
