What to do with kids in Raleigh? Raleigh offers so much beauty, fun and educational opportunities throughout all the seasons! No wonder why the City of Oaks has been chosen as one of the best places in the country to raise a family!

Below find a few of my favorite places in the city of Raleigh to visit with kids.

Trails. Greenways & Parks

When my family moved here five years ago, my two oldest kids were only 3 years old and 7 months old. They were in this magic stage where they would enjoy going for long walks in the stroller. This is how I discovered the beauty of the trails, greenways and wide-array of parks and facilities that surround Raleigh. So visiting those places with your children would be my first suggestion of what to do in Raleigh. Go here to find the closest park or trail.

Museums

Boy, do we have great museums in Raleigh! From the Museum of Art to the Museum of History, there is so much to explore and learn through each of them! Go here to read more about our favorite museums.     

Libraries

The public libraries of the city of Raleigh offers more than just books and magazines.  As a mother, I found out great resources and support to teach literacy kills, culture and foster values through the well planned library programs and events. Go here and find your closest library!

Recreation Places 

SKYZONE

My kids love this wall-to-wall trampoline courts! They are designed as a fun and fit outing for all ages, shapes and sizes. The innovative trampoline park offers a variety of activities for everyone to enjoy including Open Jump, allowing guests to leap, bound and soar and Ultimate Dodgeball, a friendly and healthy dodgeball competition.

This park is also the ideal venue for groups seeking events such as birthday parties, field trips and much more!
