Enjoy the great outdoors at the Omaha Botanical Gardens, as you meander through the living museum growing four seasons of plant displays. The colorful gardens grow alongside many intriguing, unusual and equally colorful landscape sculptures. This city garden offers the best garden clubs and great local events.

From first-class miniature golf to a challenging climbing wall, Boulder Creek Amusement Park makes for family friendly fun. The park even features batting cages where skills can be honed and challenges made. If you're hungry after a long day of play, then visit the Coney Stop, where you can enjoy classic coneys, great sandwiches and cool drinks.
