Indoor Activities for this Saturday? (Portland, Port Aransas: beach, things to do, best)

[saglamgirl]

We are coming down to Port A for the weekend with family, and it looks like we won't be hanginig out on the beach on Sat due to the rain. What are some fun activities to entertain a 3 yr old boy? We were thinking of going to the aquarium......any other ideas?

The odds are way in your favor that you won't see that rain. Predictions are 40% scattered and that usually means "scattered" somewhere else.

The Aquarium is wonderful for kids (and adults) - my grandchildren 2,3,5 have a great time there. We take them every single time we are in Corpus.

There are a few events going on in the area - some will at least be in tents that a 3 year old would enjoy.

Windfest Festival - Portland

Sandfest at Port Aransas This is amazing - some of the best sand artists in the country. IF you are facing a drizzle and they are still doing the art, wear a hat and clothes to be wet in - you don't want to miss the sand art. Consider that you were probably going to get "wet" at the beach without rain, what's the difference as long as it's not a thunderstorm?



Keep positive thoughts - odds are that you won't have that rain.

The Museum of Science and History can be fun for a 3-year-old also. They have a children's area with some hands-on things to do. It's not huge, but we used to spend hours there.
