The Children's Zoo is located inside the St. Louis Zoo, in the northwest corner of the zoo. Entry to the main zoo is free, but the Children's zoo is $5.95 per person. Children under two are free. Admission is free the first hour the Zoo is open every day. The Children's Zoo is open 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday-Thursday, and 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. Friday-Sunday during the summer. It is currently a temporary Dinoroarus exhibit that will be open until Halloween, 2021. 

From the website- "This engaging attraction for all ages features 16 different groupings of animatronic and stationary dinosaurs — colorful, prehistoric creatures that move realistically, some roaring and spitting or placidly munching on the lush vegetation.

The dinosaurs and other ancient species representing a vast span of geological time include:
Life-size triceratops (tri-SERR-uh-tops)
12-foot-tall Tyrannosaurus rex (tie-RAN-oh-SORE-us REX)
Giant stork-like quetzalcoatlus (ket-zel-KWAT-lus)
18-foot-tall brachiosaurus (brack-ee-oh-SORE-us)
Nest of duck-billed parasaurolophus babies (PAR-ah-saw-RAH-lo-fuss)
And many more!

Plus, observe a staged fossil dig site and learn all about fossils."
