\n<\/a>Indoor Play Places<\/a><\/h3>\nThe weather forecast can sometimes be a real downer \u2014 and spring storms are very much our reality here in Calgary. Happily, Calgary is also home to many<\/em>\u00a0indoor play places, from climbing structures to trampoline parks to parkour studios and beyond. Here\u2019s the lowdown on all those wonderful weather sanctuaries!<\/p>\nRead more about it\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
\n<\/a>Kids Eat Free (or Cheap!)<\/a><\/h3>\nEating out is one of life\u2019s pleasures, but when you\u2019ve got extra mouths to feed, restaurant meals can get very expensive, very quickly. Thankfully, some restaurants in town offer deals for kids on certain days! As a rule, enjoying a free kid\u2019s meal requires the purchase of an adult meal. Here\u2019s where kids can eat for free (or cheap) in Calgary.\u00a0This list is only to the best of our knowledge as offers frequently change, so check ahead to avoid disappointment.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\nRead more about it\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
\n<\/a>Parks – Beyond the Playground<\/a><\/h3>\nIt’s a good month to escape to a park! Now that my kids aren\u2019t so little, playgrounds are often an attraction, but parks hold so much more than that for us these days. Calgary parks offer everything from playgrounds to exploring nature to playing a rousing game of whatever you can imagine. (Disc golf, anyone?)<\/p>\n

\n<\/a>Playgrounds<\/a><\/h3>\nPlaygrounds are indispensable in family life. They\u2019re a place to burn off energy, build physical skills, and make friends. They offer a moment of sanity for parents. And as the kids are saying these days, sometimes you just have to get out and touch grass! Whether you plan a quick visit to your local playground down the street or pack a picnic and enjoy an afternoon adventure at a \u2018destination\u2019 playground across town, check out our list of the best playgrounds!<\/p>\n
