The Gateway Arch is an amazing place especially for families. It is free to get into. You can then explore the museum. You only have to pay to ride the tram to the top of the Arch. It is well worth it. My only suggestion is to go when it's not busy. There are 5 seats in the pod so it gets really cramped. We only had 3 adults in our pod and our knees were almost touching. I know a lot of people have questions about parking. I parked in the lot in the photo. I paid $6 for the whole day. You can park a little closer but you will be paying anywhere from $16-20 for the whole day.
