Indoor Play Areas for Kids Around Denver
With the sub-zero temperatures, you may find yourself looking for a warm place for the kiddos to play. This list of indoor play areas around Denver should come in handy.

Also keep in mind memberships are a great way to save big.
This list is by no means comprehensive as there are a gazillion spots across the metro area. A few spots have closed in the last year, others are still to re-open. Know of something that should be in the list? Just email laura@milehighonthecheap.com. [Read more…] about Indoor Play Areas for Kids Around Denver
