We moved to Denver almost two years ago and have loved exploring our new home. We have spent a lot of time exploring the Denver metro area and other areas of beautiful Colorado. While there is still a lot more for us to explore, we have found a lot of fun things to do to keep us and the kids busy.

    1. I would love to explore that part of the state more! We’ve only gone over that way once so far and it was beautiful.

  1. You have NO idea how happy I was to see this post!! I am planning a trip to Denver in July and would love to be able to take my kids & husband with me, but with me going to be in conferences all day, he wasn’t wanting them to have to stay in the motel room (unless there’s a pool!) all day!! I’ll have to show this to him!

    1. There is so much to do here! If you bring your husband and kids they will have a blast. This list is just the tip of the iceburg 🙂

  2. I want to take the kids to Denver someday. I pinned this so I can look at your list when we get to this in the future.
