Things to Do
Little Rock has many attractions for kids. The downtown area alone can keep kids occupied with the Museum of Discovery, the fun Hillary Rodham Clinton Children’s Library & Learning Center, the main library, Heifer’s Global Village and more. We also have state parks, water parks and city parks to keep your family busy.
The Little Rock Zoo, near War Memorial Park, is a can’t miss family attraction and don’t forget Arkansas Traveler’s baseball. The new Big Rock Fun Park offers go-karts, bumper boats, mini-golf and more for your family.
