Break the kids away from their cell phones, video games and computer screens and get the whole family moving when you take everyone out for a day of fun at Riverside's Don Derr Park. This sprawling and inviting area offers a little something for every member of your family. One of the more popular features of the park is the PlayBooster and PlayShaper playground components that offer a challenge as well as a good dose of exercise to any child who climbs all over them. The Gemini Sidewinder 2 is another notable attraction, as are the many slides, swings, and seesaws that make Don Derr Park such a fun and exhilarating place to take the whole family.

Give your kids the chance to really rev it up and go when you take them to Riverside's popular Adams Kart Track. This is an attraction where your kids can safely put the pedal to the metal as they navigate their go karts around the various race tracks that can be found here. Plus, Adams also features sales and service of a variety of go karts that will surely give your kids the power to move to the head of the pack. And, if you are really feeling daring, you can even consult with the pros here to devise a way to custom build a go kart that will leave all of the other competitors in the dust.

For fun, exhilaration, and exercise, hit the trail! But this just isn't any ordinary trek, this is the popular Santa Ana River Trail. This is an extensive, winding trail that runs along the Santa Ana River and offers walkers, hikers, joggers and bikers an excellent way to get out of the city and get closer to nature while getting some great exercise. The path stretches out over 70 miles, so there is plenty of room for you and your fellow trail-dwellers.

Worthington's Tavern is a Riverside favorite not only for its impressive ambiance and expert staff, but also because it provides a trendy hangout for locals who can stay in town instead of having to drive to Los Angeles to enjoy some exciting nightlife. There are two dance floors and a wide variety of today's best dance music to keep you groovin' all night long. The people are great, the club is comfortable, and there's always a great song playing at Worthington's Tavern, so don't miss out!
