Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science

A boat to climb and a wave wall with sea creatures set into it, right on the bay in the middle of downtown.

Built for kids, with interactive galleries, pretend-play spaces, a two-story sand castle and an outdoor playground.

Close encounters with sloths, lemurs and orangutans, and a zip line and wind tunnel for the ones who want a turn.

A rooftop pool with play space, and the children's museum, the science museum and the bay all within a short drive.

Second Saturday is a free family day, with the city's history laid out at a height a child can look into.

A three-storey indoor playground with laser tag and a 7-D theatre attached, which is what a rainy afternoon in Wynwood needs.
