Hello,

Can anyone tell me where I can find out aboutt things to do in Atlanta for a 12 year old who really doesn't like sports? We're looking for activities he can do on a regular basis (besides sitting in front of the TV playing video games) that would expand his horizon. Looking for things that may entice his interest - like go-carting, volunteering, something with pets, etc. Any ideas?

You could contact your local animal shelters to see if he can volunteer to walk the animals or clean the cages. You can also go to Stone Mountain, and climb the mountain. At the Bass Pro Shop in Gwinnett there is a rock wall that your son can climb for a few dollars, and a skate board park at the mall. You can also looking into horse back riding, there is a place by Chastain Park. I don't know how much that is. There also a few batting cages in the metro area, as well as going to the driving range. Both of those are very inexpensive activities that will also give him good exercise. You can also look into indoor swimming pools and/or swimming lessons. Who knows you could have a Tiger Woods or a Michael Phelps. Hope my suggestions help.
