Kids & Families
Austin is an easy place to navigate with children and families.
Pre-school and elementary school children will enjoy The Thinkery and a ride on the Zilker Zephyr.
The Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum is perfect for school age children all the way through adults, and the LBJ Presidential Library is an informative visit for high school students.
Even the simple things – like a cone at Amy's Ice Cream, watching the bats take flight from Congress Avenue Bridge, or spending an hour leafing through books at Book People – all have a uniquely Austin touch.
If the weather is pleasant, spend the day outdoors at Barton Springs Pool, Zilker Botanical Garden, Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center or the Jourdan-Bachman Pioneer Farms, all are very family-friendly.
