rivercitymadman asked:Kid-friendly RVA? As the father of a soon-to-be toddlin’ toddler, I’m looking for other parents’ recommendations on where to go to let the kiddo get all that boundless energy out. Indoor and outdoor activities are helpful. We had the day off of daycare today, so we went to Libbie Mill Library for the first time. We’re also working on a rotation of playgrounds and tot lots. I’d like to compile your suggestions into a Google Map that I could share with others. Thanks in advance for your contributions! P.S. Let’s leave the breweries out of this.
ngianfran1202 replied:I've been a stay at home dad now with my guy for almost 4 years. We go to playgrounds, have memberships to the science museum, children's museum, the zoo, and the Y (indoor pool is a great way to wear them out.). We also do soccer at SCOR on Friday mornings and really enjoy it. You can follow things like richmondmom.com and hula frog for more ideas too as they list weekly events. There is always a ton to do! PS...we were at the Libbie Mill library too this morning due to know day care

Carly B. asked:Anyone know of any fun family places in the area to go for the day?Amanda D. replied:The Richmond metro zoo is really fun. You can buy cups of food and feed the giraffes. You could also go to Mt Olympus Farms and go strawberry picking. They also do blueberries, too (not now, summertime I think) Richmondmom.com has a weekly calendar with events going on around town. We also love Hunt Club Farm in Va beach. It's $4 per person and is a great petting zoo. It's about 15 min from the beach and we usually walk the boardwalk after the petting zoo. It's not a bad drive down there. Check their website before you go, they close for cold and inclement weather.
