Go on a park adventure around The Woodlands
Follow along with @northhoustonmoms on Instagram as we explore parks in and around The Woodlands! We also have our roundup of our Top 5 Parks in North Houston as well as a Padded Playground Map.
Visit all the North Houston splash pads
While the pool is a great option, sometimes it’s nice to splash around without actually going swimming. We did the work for you and rounded up the splash pads all throughout North Houston.
Eat at a restaurant with a play area
Going out to eat is expensive enough, it would be great to go somewhere that kids can play! Check out this curated map with grassy areas, playgrounds, or designated kid spots.
Live music at Waterway Nights (Saturdays) or Heritage Place (Thursdays)
It’s fun to get out and listen to live music! Our calendar has all the details about these events (and more!)
Visit one of the indoor play places around town
We created a reel of the Top 5 Indoor Play Places to Visit in Montgomery County! There are many options to visit on days that are too hot or rainy. Don’t forget about the downtown Houston options as well: museums, NASA, and the zoo
