Such a fun space, especially for climbers. Parents can sip on coffee and chat while kids play or get in on the fun! It’s FREE too! Great for rainy days…it’s a church, but it’s open M-F!
Watermark
Always a great option, especially in Spring when the weather is great. Just try not to go during Spring Break. It’s packed!
Dallas Zoo
Great indoor play and to host celebrations.
Dino Kidz Allen
Fun pizza making class for all ages! $15/person Mon-Thursday only…and just amazing food all around. Great place for a couples date night or a family lunch w cute outdoor setting making it fun for the kids to run around.
