Rainy Day Family Destinations in Irving

Fun Family Activities in Irving During the Winter

 

Getting out to enjoy some time with the kids is important, and while outdoor activities are great, winter is on its way. Even in Texas, there are plenty of days where you want to remain indoors, so it’s important to have an arsenal of ideas to pull out of your pocket that keep the family engaged while inside.

When it’s time to hit some fun spots on the weekend, take a look at a few of the best places in Irving to find family friendly activities and events.

iT’Z Family, Food & Fun

iT’Z Family, Food & Fun offers a lot of choices to expend excess energy when outdoor activities aren’t ideal. Attractions include bowling, mini-bowling, laser tag, a laser maze, a rock climbing wall, video games, and a buffet.

Irving Arts Center

The Irving Arts Center offers various exhibits, events, and presentations throughout the year, from performing arts like theater and music from the Irving Symphony Orchestra to films and art exhibits. With changes throughout the year, it’s always a good time to visit.

Ripley’s Believe It or Not!

Ripley’s Believe It or Not offers more than just a fun and, sometimes, macabre look at history and world records. You can also visit Louis Tussaud’s Waxworks and see eerily lifelike wax replicas of celebrities. There’s also a 7D Moving Theater where you can buckle in and experience the movie, as well as a Mirror Maze, a LaserRace, and even a chance to create a wax hand.

Perot Museum

The Perot Museum of Nature and Science is fun for all ages, with permanent exhibits such as Being Human and Hall of Birds. It also incorporates several specialty exhibits throughout the year.

Medieval Times

Medieval Times is an incredible experience that takes you deep into the past. Enjoy a meal – with no silverware – while watching the tournaments and exhibitions put on for your enjoyment. Look through rooms with old dungeon torture devices, and learn about how to train a dancing horse!
