Things to do in Mesa, AZ with kids

Here’s a fun fact - Mesa actually make KaBOOM’s annual list for the “Playful City USA” which can only mean one thing - it’s a pretty awesome city for kids! 

Forget seasons, because Mesa has year-round attractions that covers all age groups - from educational, culture, and of course outdoors.

Mesa has fascinating museums such as the Arizona Museum of Nature History, and kids even have their own museum with the Arizona Museum for Youth! 

Cool down in Golfland Sunplash Waterpark, or explore the desert with the Desert Botanical Garden. Got active kids? Laser Quest or indoor play centres like Jambo Indoor Fun can cover that! (Parents - Jumpstreet lets parents bounce too - no excuses!). 

Love nature? Perfect! Jump on the Desert Belle Tour Boat and float past dramatic desert vistas.   Feelin’ a little western? Head on down to Rockin’ R Ranch for some old fashioned western stage shows, gunfights and finger lickin’ BBQs!

So pack your walking shoes, playtime socks, cowboy and cowgirl boots, and thinking caps, because there is a lot to be experienced in this fun Arizona city, and you won’t want to mesa thing!
