We’re not new to Minnesota, and we know how snowy Midwest winters can get. Once in the midst of the winter chill, all we want to do is stay warm and get cozy! Though, we still have to keep ourselves entertained through these long months. More importantly, we have to keep our kids entertained. Play time and exploration doesn’t stop with the snow. Luckily there are so many great indoor options around the Twin Cities for you and your kids to “get out”. From places that will broaden minds to places that will spend all their energy, there’s something for everyone.
