Looking for something to do with the kids?

WLE Ranger

Now that spring is here there are plenty of things to do with the kids to keep them busy. But for those of you still looking for viable activities there is a hidden gem in Parker that you may not know about.

The Wildlife Experience is a great place to have fun with the kids and provide them and interesting learning opportunity. They have fun play areas and activity space for younger kids, and an Imax-like movie theater with great films that both educate and entertain. The two movies currently playing are Whales and Australia. The Wildlife Experience also has ever changing exhibits that are usually very well done. Check out their thorough website to see all that TWE has to offer.

TWE also has a monthly Martini and a Movie night for the grownups if you are looking for something new on “date night.”

TWE is reasonably priced and serves a valuable purpose. A quote from the FAQ section of their website states that The Wildlife Experience’s purpose is “to promote understanding and appreciation of wildlife – both animal and plant life in a natural environment – and to inspire efforts to conserve it.”

The McDads have been members for a couple of years and we usually visit about once a quarter, as the movies and exhibits are always changing.

It also has a good, and cheap, cafeteria.

All in all, if you are seeking something new….this might just be the thing you’re looking for.

What have been your experiences with The Wildlife Experience?
