Plunge into boatloads of fun this summer in Richmond, Virginia. Learn through play at the Children's Museum of Richmond, zoom through the treetops at Treetop Zoofari, or take up a paddle at Pony Pasture.
Jump into action at the Children's Museum of Richmond. With a special emphasis on learning through play, your kids will love all the exhibits designed with their interests in mind. Watch your children as they play "grown-up" in the Town Square. Complete with a market, hospital and school, your little one can be a doctor or teacher for the day. Kids will also enjoy painting a picture at the art studio and gardening in the backyard.
Feel the breeze in your hair at the Treetop Zoofari, Richmond's first-ever adventure park. Be Indiana Jones or Tarzan for a day on the park’s Treetop Zofari zip line course. With multiple challenges such as jungle ropes, floating logs, and tight wires, your kid is sure to burn off plenty of energy. If you have younger children that are not too fond of heights, the Junior Explorer course is perfect for them, as it rises 5 to 12 ft high and includes one zip line. Kids will also enjoy a 360 degree view of various animals, including giraffes, antelopes, orangutans, and toucans.
Revel in the great outdoors at Pony Pasture. This beautiful park features a stunning river that hosts many activities. Grab a paddle and go on a canoe or kayaking adventure, or swim the day away in the azure waters. Stocked with wildlife, your family can sport some binoculars and watch for birds, or cast a line and fish the day away. With events such as whitewater tubing and even rock climbing, your family may have trouble deciding what to do first.
