Children are a source of perpetual energy. Wear them out at Kids in Motion, an attraction designed with kids in mind. Adults get in free with a child's admission. Watch your children run around in the open play area, explore their creative side in the art center, learn problem-solving skills in the puzzle room and much, much more. Everyone can get in on the fun with laser tag or in the game room.

If you feel the urge to dance, hit the floor at the Mad Planet. Milwaukee's only alt-rock dance club, Mad Planet hosts a retro-themed dance night every Friday, when you can dust off your parachute pants and get down to the funky sounds of the 80s and 90s. Live music shows on Saturdays have included big-ticket national acts like Arcade Fire and Lucero.
