Take the kids to see their favorite stories come to life on the Children's Theatre stage at the Arkansas Art Center. The entertainment company was recognized by The Drama League as "one of the best regional theater companies in America," and has wowed audiences with performances like The Jungle Book, A Year With Frog and Toad, Alice in Wonderland, The Giant and the Beanstalk, and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.

Show the kids that learning can be fun at the Museum of Discovery. Exhibits are geared toward the subjects of science, math, and technology. Bug Zoo, Energy!, Imagination Station, Worlds of the Forest, and Room to Grow are just a few of the interactive exhibits that encourage learning through fun. Recent renovations are bringing even more exhibits and attractions to the museum in January 2012.

Head to a state-wide party and have some fun at the Arkansas State Fair. The festival has it all - food, drinks, music, carnival rides, a livestock show, professional bull riding, a beauty pageant, dozens of contests, shopping, shows and more. Plan to spend a couple of days visiting the fair, because you just can't experience it all in one day.
