Brrrr....

Sub-zero temperatures. No school.  Antsy kids.  What's a parent to do?  There is always the tried and true movie theater, shopping mall and bowling alley, but if you are courageous enough to venture outside to brave the cold, here are a few ideas that are more off the beaten path.

Olbrich Botantical Gardens - Check out the conservatory!  It's a warm, humid paradise in the middle of winter!

Henry Vilas Zoo - The zoo have several inside exhibits including the Primate House and the Discovery Center and Herpatarium.

Wisconsin State Capitol - Discover the heavy marble and see where the grand staircases will lead you through this wonderful building.  The majesty of the structure can only be surpassed by the history made within the walls.  A great place!

Vitense Golfland - Lots of indoor activities for kids, mini-golf, remote control boats and an arcade.  The best part: a windowed room for mom and dad to sit fireside while the kids play!

However you spend the next few frigid days, Stay warm!
