Get behind the wheel of one of the many go-karts at Putt-Putt Fun Center and you'll waste no time putting the pedal to the metal! This fun go-kart track is perfect for all ages and skill levels, and of course, it is tightly supervised to ensure everyone's safety. When you're at Putt Putt, remember to play a round of miniature golf as well as all the other great games available at this family-friendly recreation venue.

If you've got a future scientist in the family, or even if you and your brood just love stargazing, then a trip to the Planetarium at UT Arlington will prove to be the perfect intergalactic adventure. The out-of-this-world tool makes it possible to get an unbelievably close view of various stars and planets through their highly-powered telescope that is projected onscreen in the 165-seat viewing area. Also, the dome animation show is absolutely stunning. The Planetarium at UT Arlington does an excellent job of bringing the adventure of outer space up close for you and your family to discover and learn.
