Suggestions for indoor activities for kids?

I hope people don't mind me posting this on both sites... I figure this way both sites get a post and I got more potential people looking at it.

-----

All this rain is unreal. This is such a strange August. While I'm thankful that we've been spared any of the serious problems from the rain that so many are facing, being stuck inside all the time is no fun. It really hits home that the nice weather is nearly gone and what am I going to do with this very active toddler all Winter long? Yikes! So I'm looking for suggestions for indoor activities. Here's what we already do:

1) Children's Museum - This is a great place to spend a morning but it's quite a drive from Holmen so we don't go more than once a week.

2) Chuck E Cheese - This place is usually pretty empty in the mornings and is fun for a toddler. It doesn't cost a ton because he's happy playing with a lot of the games with no money in them. The older he gets, though, the more he realizes that putting coins in makes it do more.

3) McDonalds - The playplace is great for him to burn off some of that endless energy. But not so good for me because I'm rarely behaved enough to just get a salad.

4) Toys R Us - They've got that wonderful climbing structure but I feel weird about going there too much when I'm not buying anything. Plus, they've taken out most of the toys they used to have at the bottom so it's not as much fun.

5) Library - There's a small play area for kids, but that's quite a long drive just for that, so we don't go much.

So that's the options I know of. I'd like to find more to do to keep things interesting. Any other suggestions?

Thanks,

Well..

I don't know about activities.. but if you happen to find any fun places or events for kids be sure to let us know so we can post them on WisEvents.

Even better, YOU could post them on WisEvents

All you have to do is log-in using your Bubbler user id and you can begin posting.

Check out the event calendar too - I remember posting a few events for LaCrosse County, I'm just not sure what they were - It's been a long day on the computer here!

I was actually looking at that site the other day. I want to see if there's some way that either I can feed events to it from my site or vice versa so I only have to enter events once. It's on my to do list to look into.

The only kid related event I can think of right now is kidfest. There's info on it here: http://lacrossetribune.com/kidfest07.pdf
