Fish Creek Neighborhood Park offers a little something to do outdoors for everyone in the family. The kids will love the park amenities like the playground rides and basketball courts, but even the younger kids will have fun in the toddler play area. This section of the park specializes in providing children between the ages of 2 and 5 a safe environment in which to play and enjoy themselves. The park's pavilion is available for rental for family events and group activities.
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.
