Spring Break!

Thursday March 16, 2006
Visit the Little Rock ZooNext week is Spring Break for most Little Rock schools. What should you do with the kids when they're out? Here are some great places to take them that won't break the bank!
  • The Little Rock Zoo: There's nothing like the zoo to help kids work of some of their extra Spring Break energy!
  • The Purple Cow: Yummy! Nothing says Spring Break more than enourmous milkshakes, burgers and fries! The Purple Cow has the best of each!
  • City Parks: Any of these parks will be fun for kids to visit and play. Take a group one day and let the parents have a day off! Be sure you arrange "payback." They can take the kids tomorrow!
  • Children's Museums: The Imax, Musuem of Discovery and Little Rock Children's Museum are great places for kids to have fun (and maybe learn something). I highly recommend the Museum of Discovery! Kids can play there for hours!
  • Take In A Movie: Outdoors is more fun, but there are great family movies playing! Perhaps a day with the kids at the theater is worth checking out!
If you don't mind leaving the city, what about taking them fishing or camping or to visit a state park? All are great ideas!
