Airplane Spotting
If your kids love airplanes, the Airport Observation Area is sure-fire hit. Onlookers flock to this parking lot on the 1200 block of E. Layton Ave. to get an up-close look and hear the roar of the massive jet planes as they come and go. Tune into 88.5 to hear aircraft communication. You can pick up some Culver's custard down the road, sit out on the car hood and make a night of it!

Little Free Libraries
Little Free Libraries have been popping up all over Milwaukee, and there's probably one or two near you! The concept is simple - anyone can construct a box for books and install it anywhere they like. The signs say "Take a book. Leave a book," and that's just what you should do! It's kind of like a treasure hunt, and you're sure to find something the kids will love. Find a Little Free Library on Google Maps.
