Roger Williams Park is often referred to as "the Jewel of Providence" for good reason. This 430-acre park contains a zoo, landscaped grounds, gardens, a carousel and historic buildings. There are also plenty of scenic walking and recreation trails that offer a chance to take in the park's many amenities in a relaxed way.
Kids are used to being told to keep their hands off of things. Luckily for them, the opposite is the case when the whole family visits the Providence Children's Museum. A hands-on approach is highly encouraged as the kids are able to create their own artwork using the provided paints and other modes of expression. The exhibits and attractions are hands-on and are highly informative and entertaining, presenting such subjects as a time traveling adventure through Rhode Island's multicultural history, and a wet and wild exploration of the ways of water. Those are just a couple of the many great adventures that await you and the kids at the Providence Children's Museum.
