OKC Stuff for Kids!

[kroberts2131]

My wife has to go to OKC next week for training. Jenn wants us to come down and stay for a day or two so she doesn't have to not see our 1 1/2 year old. Sitting in a hotel room all day seems awfully fun but I think I need something else to do. Thought about the zoo? What else would be good? Its turning chilly so indoors would probably be best. Is there an aquarium or anything? Thanks for the ideas guys!

The National Cowboy Hall of Fame is cool. There's also a Science Museum down the road. The State Capitol is very interesting. There's a Natural History museum at OU.

The American Banjo Museum is down in Bricktown. http://www.americanbanjomuseum.com/

Bass Pro can be a fun place to take a child.

Science Museum is probably the best place though.

The science museum by the zoo is a lot of fun. My wife and I went and had a blast.

The science museum, the cowboy hall of fame, and the zoo are all within half a mile of each other. They are all a great time for kids and adults. It would be hard to do all three in one day.

the oklahoma history musuem east of the capital off 23rd is good fun.

For a 1 1/2 year old, I don't know if the Omniplex (currently known as the Science Museum, but most locals refuse to acknowledge this name change) is worth the price of admission. I just can't think of much in there that would entertain a toddler that young. The zoo is a great choice, though.

Sounds like the zoo is the best choice. She won't enjoy a musuem, she's too little for it now. If all else fails, Dora the Explorer LOL

oops, sorry didn't see age...zoo would be my choice if anything. Parks are nice as well.
