Family Afternoon at the Phoenix Art Museum

Take advantage of your family’s extra free time this summer by nurturing your creative side at the Phoenix Art Museum. From noon to 4 p.m., the museum will be offering art-making, games and hands-on activities inspired by its collections and special exhibitions. You will also have the chance to earn prizes and explore the museum during the scavenger hunt. The event is included in the price of general admission and free for members.

Make a Mega Mess with Foam at the Children’s Museum

If your kids are already bored of the pool and sprinklers this summer vacation, take them to the Children’s Museum of Phoenix to add some suds to the mix. From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., the museum opens an interactive space filled with foam at no additional cost. Bring swimsuits and check out the helpful tips on the website.

Splash Pad at the Scottsdale Quarter

Sip on cool, freshly-squeezed juice from nearby Juby True while your little ones cool off in the splash pad in the quad. With plenty of green space, more than 80 retailers and some of the best dining in the Valley, the Scottsdale Quarter is the perfect oasis to spend the entire day. The outdoor shopping center is even pet friendly, so bring the canine members of the family as well!
