Did you know that the Kentucky Science Center has a pop-up location at the Mall St. Matthews? Here are all of the details. It’s perfect for a safe indoor option for younger kids!

Get a craft kit from the Little Loom House. This is great indoor fun during the colder months. Tues-Friday 10am-3pm or Saturday 11am-4pm.

Side by Side Studio has art kits to go. You can provide activities for your kids to be creative without worrying about gathering up all of the supplies. Plus, Side by Side Studio provides some guidance for ideas through the kits!

Bundle up and go for a hike at the Louisville Nature Center. Behind the building, hop on a trail. The trails are all appropriate distances for families.

Toward the back of the trails, there’s access to a creek. The trails all make loops so you can’t get lost! Bring bug spray and wear long pants, the trails are thin.

Get art supplies delivered to you! Paint all sorts of fun designs with your kids. Paintn’ Party delivers and it’s all just $18 for everything you need.

Don’t forget to wash your hands!

Get active! It’s easy to sit around when there seems to be less going on. But, really, there’s a lot to do that you just might not have discovered yet. Here are our ideas for active family fun.
