Okay, borrowing my mom's account ;) but I have a 2 year old and nanny for a 3 year old and I am looking for activities in the area to take them to. We have had a membership to the Dallas World Aquarium and would love to try something new for this year some kind of membership or just places to take them to for new experiences. We've done the Children's Museum down town, Herd, Zoo's, the zone....need more ideas mamas!! <3 thank you!

I have a three year old and we go to Kurt Thomas GYM in Frisco every Wednesday. They have an open gym for preschoolers. My son loves it. It cast seven dollars perchild and starts at 10:00-11:00. He just runs and play so hard. Also on Mondays in Frisco Pump It Up has open play from 10:00 to 11:00 this is a bounce house place. Both places are great for them to let out their engery!

The Science Place is great to have a membership. They have a wonderful area for little kids. You can even look online at the other museums under the ASTC Passport Participants program. If you join another museum in another city, it may be cheaper and then you can also go to the Fort Worth Museum for free. There are quite a free bounce house type places like Pump it Up. You don't say if they are boys or girls, but my boys always loved to go to the Collectible Train Store (/www.trainsandtoys.com). They have moved to a new location, and we have not been there, so I am not sure if it is the same, but they used to have lots of trains for kid to play with and lots of electric trains to watch.

Have you tried storytimes with the libraries? Most branches have at least one / week. The one at NorthPark is particularly good.

We also go to the park a lot.

What a wonderful opportunity this summer to take swim lessons. G., you and your 2 year old can take a parent/child class-WaterBugs together and the 3 year old can go independently at the same time.
A great place is Aqua~Fit, where the water is warm and a salt water facility.
The teachers are great and well trained.
Pre-Summer begins May 17 and Summer sessions begin June 7.
The classes are 2 week sessions, Monday-Thursday-8 --30 minute lessons.
This would be great exercise and a life skill that could save a life.
