Do you have a toddler in your household this summer? Raises hand…I do! And after 3 summers in OKC with toddlers I thought it would be fun to put together a list of some of our favorite fun activities for toddlers in OKC.
As a mom I’m always on the lookout for new things to do and as an OKC family photographer I also love providing resources for families and my clients.
The Oklahoma City area offers so many amazing opportunities and I love hearing about new things to do. If I am missing something on this list please drop it in the comments below!
Fun Summer Activities For Toddlers In OKC
Outdoor Activities
The metro area boasts so many awesome parks and places to adventure. From parks to splash pads (check out our 5 favorite splash pads in OKC) to lots of spots to enjoy nature. Hafer Park has a great toddler focused playground. Gallop over to Mustang for another awesome park and splash pad fun.
They have an excellent shaded play garden as well their awesome Splash Fountain. Year round they hold a storytime on Wednesday mornings inside the lobby. From June through early August they hold summer walk ups in the garden with a different activity for each day. Check those out here.
Oklahoma City Zoo
The zoo is definitely a favorite at our house! They do have a few playgrounds and water areas to help break up your visits to the animals. Bring your own stroller or wagon and all the snacks for a fun filled day.
Getting into the water is always a great way to cool off and with splash pads it eases a lot of anxiety for me as a mom. Check out our list of favorite splashpads around the metro area here.
Montessori play studio in Nichol Hills focused for littles ages 0-5. They offer a variety of different opportunities from music classes with your littles, to a Mother’s Day Out drop off option to party play.
On Thursdays and Fridays 9:30-11:30 Metro holds a toddler open play session for any kid 4 and under. Get those wiggles out and let them do sensory and skill building play!
Science Museum Toddler Area
The Science Museum OK is always a great place to go hang out when it’s hot, cold or anyday! The toddler area has water and imagnery play. Upstairs there are places to run and play with larger than life legos and and other fun things.
Story Time at the Library
The Metro area has so many amazing libraries with play areas perfect for little toddlers. Visit the different ones around the metro area for your littles to be delighted. Each library has it’s own play area and storytime.
From music to dance, to swim, to Spanish, there are so many different mommy and me class activities for toddlers in OKC. Quite a few fun things to fill your days!
Hopefully this list of activities for toddlers in OKC was helpful and will help you fill your days as you explore and adventure with your little one!
