Let the list begin! We all know there are hundreds of great reasons to live in Austin, Texas. And that’s exactly why we like to live in and around our apartment community at Juniper Springs. And now that school’s out and the kids are home – all summer long – we’ve dedicated this blog to help you… <\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.rentcafe.com\/dmslivecafe\/UploadedImages\/99a6237f-19e3-4bbf-934d-539ed4381ec6.jpg\")
\nWe all know there are hundreds of great reasons to live in Austin, Texas. And that’s exactly why we like to live in and around our apartment community at Juniper Springs. <\/a>
\n
\nAnd now that school’s out and the kids are home – all summer long – we’ve dedicated this blog to help you and your family have a super summer you will never forget,<\/p>\n

\nANIMAL ATTRACTIONS<\/strong>
\n10808 Rawhide Trail
\n512-288-1490
\nAustinZoo.com<\/a>
\n
\nFrom toddlers to teen, our own Austin Zoo has a wide variety of education programs on tap. We’ll recommend some of our favorites:
\n
\nMommy and Me (age 2 – 5)
\nZoo Kids (age 5 – 7)
\nExplorers (ages 8 – 10)
\n
\nAll of which offer programs to get kids up close and personal to the residents of the zoo and all programs we feel are a great value at only $5 for a parent\/child and $3 for each additional child.
\n
\nLITTLE SPOON<\/strong>
\n512 799 8301
\nTxKidsKitchen.com<\/a>
\n
\nThis mobile culinary school offers summer camps in and around Austin for children ages 3 to 14. Within this fun and interactive program, your kids will learn the basics of how to get around the kitchen, cook up some easy and delicious meals, and be professionally guided through the entire process by local chefs and nutritionists.
\n
\nWe also like the idea that Little Spoon hosts one-on-one sessions and also offers options for birthday parties. Prices vary yet all seem to be a good investment – for those who want a “chef’s night off”!
\n
\nFOREVER YOUNG <\/strong>
\n1101 Red River Street
\n512-476-6064
\nAustinSymphony.com<\/a>
\nOne of our favorite ways to spend the days during the summer months is at Symphony Square where the Austin Symphony hosts a summer-long line up of performances geared to keep kids entertained in the wonderful world of music. This year’s acts include Sara Hickman (June 8), The Hey Lollies (June 22), the Instrument Petting Zoo and new to the lineup this year is Tune Buggz – a live dance and music act for the very young up to 5 years old. Perhaps the best investment in Austin – the programs are only 50 cents per child and adults are free.
\n
\nCRADLE POSE<\/strong>
\n8213 Brodie Lane, Suite 112
\n512-522-3886
\nYogapeutics.com<\/a>
\n
\nYoga for kids? You bet, yet it’s not what you think. Cradle Pose offers one of the more innovative ways to keep your kids fit and focused on their well-being. Thanks to South Austin’s Yogapeutics, your children can immerse themselves in aerial yoga led by occupational therapist and registered yoga teacher Lindsey Lineck. Classes are offered for children ages 4 – 16 years old. All of whom we promise will love the time hanging from a fabric sling fee off the floor while learning body awareness and mindfulness.
\n
\nSo there’s our short list of a long list of things to do and see with your kids this summer. We’ll be back with more ideas later in the year yet in the meantime, get outside and get your summer on now!
