What are the best family activities in Denver?

I’ve been wanting to take my family to see the Rocky Mountains for a while, but I know they won’t want to be hiking the entire time. Are there good family activities to do in Denver?

You’re in luck—
Denver
has tons of fun stuff to do no matter how old you are! Here are the best family activities in Denver:
  • Denver Museum of Nature & Science: Have fun while learning about natural wonders and prehistoric times at the many exhibits and programs of the Museum of Nature & Science.
Pro Tip: If you’re willing to drive a few miles out of town, you can touch real dinosaur bones at Dinosaur Ridge in
Morrison
, where important dinosaur discoveries were made in the 1800s!
  • Denver Zoo: Get up close and personal with over 3,000 animals at one of Denver’s most popular attractions. From elephants, orangutans, and lions to a carousel and railroad, kids are sure to have a roaring good time.
  • Wings Over the Rockies Air & Space Museum: Explore all there is to know about aviation and space by exploring over 50 aircrafts—and you can even experience a flight simulation!
  • Meow Wolf: Activate your imagination through the immersive and interactive art installations of Meow Wolf—now featuring Convergence Station, a four-story psychedelic exhibit of epic proportions.
  • Downtown Aquarium: Get in touch with your wild side at the Downtown Aquarium by feeding stingrays, swimming with sharks, panning for gold, seeing a mermaid show, or becoming a marine biologist for a day.
You can definitely
get around Denver
relying on public transportation, but some of the best adventures are outside of the city, so it’s probably worth having a vehicle for your trip. Whether you’re taking your own car or grabbing a
