Thrifty Travel Fun: Indinapolis, IN

Posted on 9:03 AM by
This week's Thrifty Travel Fun is courtesy of the Kids Activity Blog: Holly Homer, the mama behind the blog, posted such a great list of kid-friendly fun in Indianapolis that I couldn't resist sharing. After all, when in doubt about how to keep kids entertained, turn to the mother of three boys - she's sure to have some foolproof suggestions!

How cool is this? A magical looking swing at the Museum of Art's Park

Here's what stood out to me from her list of Indianapolis fun:

 Indianapolis Museum of Art’s 100 Acre Park - Open from dusk to dawn, the park is filled with interactive art and unique experiences for children. Everything is free including parking.

 Conner Prairie Interactive History Park - This is a fantastic experience for kids of all ages. As a past employee, I raced around the prairie dressed as the Headless Horseman chasing wagon loads of “unsuspecting” visitors. In the fall and spring, families with older children can step back in time and experience the Underground Railroad. That’s right, you are’t just viewing, you are doing!

Martinsville Candy Kitchen - Martinsville is less than an hour drive from downtown Indy. The Candy Kitchen is an authentic old-fashion candy store. Looking is free and you can watch them make the candy. "

Accommodation Tip: 
The charming Best Western Crossroads is located just minutes from downtown Indy and all its attractions, and features a swimming pool for all the little fish in your family!
