5 Tips for Moms Planning Indoor Family Fun

When it is time for a family getaway, many moms find themselves as the designated planner for events. Of course, the aim is always to pack in as much of a good time as you can, especially if time is a concern. It is always nice to get away from home, but if you live in the Austin area, you will find there is plenty of family fun  just waiting for you right a home. Below are some ideas you can consider—whether you are planning a trip to the area or you are an Austin local.
Library Fun
Reading really is fun and fundamental—but the public library not just for reading anymore! You and the kids can enjoy activities like movies, concerts, puppet shows and video game tournaments—indoors! Since they are all free activities—consider taking the kids out for more family fun to a pizza meal afterwards.

Climb a Rock Wall
Kids love to climb! So why not let them take advantage of a 30 feet rock wall that is contained in the comfort of an indoor facility. The kids will enjoy family fun!

Dinosaur Domain
Museums are a great way to beat any kind of weather. They offer exhibits that keep both parents and kids occupied for hours. Especially cool are natural science exhibits that feature fossils, dinosaurs and other prehistoric relics. After your archeological excursion, extend the family fun with a great pizza meal for the kiddos.

Laser Tag
Adults love it…kids love it! Laser tag is a game of super-charged indoor fun. A vest and phaser put you in control and sets off the adrenaline as you try to get to center of the game arena.

Arcade Fun
Turn your kid loose in an arcade, and they are busy for hours! Play, accumulate tickets, and get great prizes. It is one of the best ways to beat the summer heat or the winter chill in Austin.

There are numerous options in the Austin area if you are looking to find family fun and beat the hot or cold weather. Check out other activities at Austin's Park n Pizza.
