Things to do
This is more of a multi-storey jungle gym made out of art than a "museum". You can climb on anything, explore tunnels, there's a 9 story slide, and rooftop ferris wheel. It's worth the trip to St. Louis just to go here.

Forget your wallet (well don't, you might want to buy stuff there), because it's free! It's a world class zoo right up there with the San Diego Zoo. Many of the building date back to the 1904 Worlds Fair, so it's got a nice old timey vibe to parts of it. Be sure to check out the penguin exhibit.
