Who says learning can’t be fun? With four Creative Playrooms, the ChildrenConnect is where your child’s imagination can run wild while they enjoy discovery and meaningful play. The Pre-K Playroom offers a safe space for toddlers to play, learn and grow while the Imagination Lab offers drop-in crafts and creative materials. The Your World Room comes complete with costumes, a play-bank and a play-grocery store for fully immersive play. The Connecting Room lets little engineers build with Legos, Knex and Fossils. Watch your child’s imagination come to life!

That’s the Ticket: We recommend buying tickets online in advance as there is limited capacity. Kids enter for $10, adults and children under 10-months are free!

Stretch your legs and get your heart pumping at one of Georgia’s largest state parks. With five miles of river frontage, 12 miles of hiking and four miles of biking trails, you’ll spend your day surrounded by scenic views. Cast a line along the river then fire up the grill to enjoy your catch of the day at one of the on-site picnic shelters. A large playground gives little ones and big kids alike a safe place to run free. Cottage, Tent, trailer, RV and hike/paddle-in campsites turn daytime fun into an overnight retreat.

Potty Break: Restrooms are available at the Day-Use Area (the playground is also here), the Visitor Center and the campsites. Unless you’re taking the long route, you can leave the toilet paper at home!

A trip to Coweta County doesn’t have to be all go-go-go. Slow down and stroll through this open-air shopping center. Unwind and lean back while you catch the latest flicks at Regal Cinemas Georgian 14. With an expanded menu brought to your seat, you’ll feel right at home in front of the big screen. Hungry for more? You can grab a bite at any of the 17 restaurants. From Korean BBQ to Neapolitan pizza, there is sure to be something to appease even the pickiest of appetites. Here’s the scoop on dessert: Creamistry’s fresh ice cream and liquid nitrogen smoke shows are a can’t-miss. With nearly 50 retailers ranging from clothing and shoe stores to nail salons, forgetting something at home is now yesterday’s worry.

Free Events: Keep an eye on Ashley Park’s website for free family-friendly events, such as easy listening live music on the Green and a Christmas tree lighting festival. We even heard Anna, Elsa & Olaf will be there!

Swing, slide and splash on this massive playground that’s definitely worth the drive! The 32,000 sq/ft kids castle and 2,400 sq/ft splash pad are the wonderland your kids have been dreaming of! Pavilions, picnic tables and charcoal grills mean the fun doesn’t have to end at lunchtime. The playground is open year-round and the splash pad flows from April 1 – September 6, meaning no matter the season, there’s always fun to be had.

Don’t Forget the SPF: Even though sunshades and trees offer plenty of shade, this outdoor park can still get pretty sunny in the summer. Pack sunscreen and UV-protective clothing, especially if you plan to visit the splash pad!

Trampolines, climbing walls and ropes course galore–your kids will soar through this indoor adventure arena! Whether you prefer a high-octane race on the go-kart track or teeing up at the neon jungle putt-putt, siblings can put their rivalry to the test in some light-hearted competition. Refuel, rehydrate and relax at the Urban Air Café, stocked with kids’ favorites. A safe and secluded “Seven & Under” area means little ones won’t have to miss out on the fun just because they’re young.

Safety First: Jumping, climbing and running is a blast but might cause a boo-boo. Don’t worry, Urban Air has some pretty strict safety rules that will keep you and your children from any bumps or bruises.
