If you need a day out of the sun (or the rain is putting a damper on things) try out some of our favorite non-beach activities! 

1. Island Branch Library: has a great kids area with toys and tons of books to read. Plus a couple mornings out of the week they have free playtime/storytime that our children LOVED when they were little. 5701 Marina Drive

2. "The Nest" at Robinson Preserve: The NEST is an incredible treetop playground and learning center tucked inside beautiful Robinson Preserve. It’s one of our favorite spots for kids to run, climb, and explore! Climb nets, balance on logs, and zip down slides. There’s plenty of space for imagination and adventure! Shaded picnic areas make it easy to take a snack break, and nearby walking trails and boardwalks are stroller-friendly and full of wildlife spotting opportunities (keep your eyes open for turtles and tropical birds!).
