Omni Austin Downtown

Nature climbers, a grass maze and a slide that runs down the hillside under the trees.

Real artifacts and interactive exhibits on the state's history, so kids get to try things as well as look.

Casual food with a covered outdoor playground, so the play area stays out of the sun.

Climbing walls, sand play and slides a short walk from the lake, so the diggers and the climbers are both covered.

A treehouse net to climb and nature play under shade, with a splash pad beside it for hot days.

Outdoor mini-golf among oversized storybook figures, so the holes double as something to look at.
