GIFTS FOR KIDS<br />
... That keep on giving<br />
If your gift list includes a wide array of toy requests – from a Walking Buzz Lightyear<br />
to the Barbie Dream Plane to Boppi the Booty Shakin’ Llama – you’re going to have to<br />
go to a big box store.<br />
Buzz, Barbie and Boppi are topping lists as the gifts to give for 20<strong>19</strong>. But locally, there<br />
are other gifts that can provide just as many hours of fun and far more opportunities for<br />
learning.<br />
Consider memberships to The Magic House, the Sophia M. Sachs Butterfly House,<br />
the Saint Louis Zoo and the Science Center. Little explorers love these four homegrown<br />
attractions whose memberships come with adult-sized perks.<br />
