Indoor Play Areas for Kids Around Denver
With the smokin’ hot temperatures, you may find yourself looking for a cool place for the kiddos to play. This list of indoor play areas around Denver should come in handy.
I’ve included all sorts of activities, some free and some with an admission fee. For some of the pricier attractions, I noted if there’s a Groupon available (and you should always check Groupon yourself for those not marked, as new Groupons pop up from time to time). Also keep in mind memberships are a great way to save big.
This list is by no means comprehensive as there are a gazillion spots across the metro area. A few spots have closed in the last year, others are still to re-open. Know of something that should be in the list? Just email laura@milehighonthecheap.com. [Read more…] about Indoor Play Areas for Kids Around Denver

71+ Easter Egg Hunts, Festivals & Bunny Photos Around Denver + A New Interactive Map!
The Front Range is hopping with Easter Egg Hunts! Here’s the latest, based on what we could dig up. Some are hosted Easter weekend, others the weekend prior. Hunts are sorted by date and city. Most are FREE, unless otherwise noted. Remember to bring some sort of basket or bucket for the kids to collect their eggs and treats.
Be sure to note the time and date of all events, as some divide the hunt based on age. And, since candy-seeking kids can sweep an entire field of treats clean in a matter of minutes, we suggest arriving early to nab a good spot. Happy Egg Hunting!
