Here are Six of the Coolest Indoor Playgrounds in Indiana

Looking for fun things to do with your family this winter? I found six places within the state of Indiana that you're going to want to visit!

When it's cold outside, you have to get a little creative when it comes to doing things to keep your kids entertained without freezing your behinds off. When I was a kid, that go-to place was Discovery Zone in Evansville, Indiana. Every 90s kid loved going there.  The slides, tunnels, ball pits, and games that Discovery Zone was so much fun. It was truly one of the most memorable aspects of my childhood.

As you know, Discovery Zone went bankrupt, and it left a huge void in fun places for families. However, believe it or not, we still have quite a few indoor adventure parks within the state of Indiana that would be fun for everyone in the entire family. So, I found six of the coolest indoor playgrounds throughout the state that you might want to add to your family's bucket list.

Kid's Planet

There is a place called Kid's Planet that is located about 2 1/2 hours away from Evansville in Brownsburg, Indiana. Kid's Planet features a four-story jungle gym full of tunnels, levels, overlooks, slides, a ball pit with ball cannons, and more. Other features include a trampoline, jumbo-sized Legos, and a kinetic sandpit.

Some of the attractions they have include indoor ziplining, a ropes course, climbing walls, virtual reality, tunnels, a playground, several trampoline attractions, and more attractions that I think kids and adults both would enjoy. There are locations in Bloomington, Franklin, and Noblesville in Indiana.  Each location varies in attractions that they have to offer, but overall they have the same things. It just depends on where you want to visit and if there's a special attraction at one of these locations that you want to try out.
