Alta Ski Resort
Alta Ski Resort is a popular destination all year round, but it becomes especially popular in the summer when a snow storm is less likely. This resort opened in the 1930s and is famous as the second oldest ski resort in the country. This resort was specially designed to accommodate both beginners and experts so please do not feel too concerned about taking your kids along. They are especially fond of this bold outdoor activity.

Tracy Aviary
The Tracy Aviary is the only aviary in Salt Lake City. This aviary features over 100 different species of birds from around the world and is dedicated to the preservation of endangered species like the Trumpeter Swan. Imagine watching the faces of your young ones light up as they attempt to feed a few of these graceful birds.

Liberty Park
Liberty Park becomes quite popular around summer time because it is one of the best places to take your family during the summer. This lush 9- acre property has facilities for picnics, tennis, jogging and bird watching. In addition to the well kept lawn and jogging trails, the park also has an up to date playground. There is also a pond in the centre of the park where many families can be feed feeding ducks. I doubt your children will be disappointed with a trip here.

Utah’s Hogle Zoo
Very few children can resist the excitement of a trip to the zoo. The opportunity to see and interact with animals from around the world is usually a feature of most childhood memories. Utah’s Hogle Zoo is thus an opportunity for you to make memories with your children. This zoo is full of fascinating animals and recently made a lot of enhancements to the displays. The children’s play area for our tiny tots is also pretty swell because it allows your kids to play freely and splash around as well.

Utah Flying Trapeze
If your kids are teenagers, it might prove very challenging to keep them entertained. While toddler and preteens can be kept occupied by play areas and zoos, teenagers tend to be interested only in social media and shopping. The Utah Flying Trapeze will give them an opportunity to challenge themselves to be better, while they are having fun. The staff there is friendly and quite entertaining. Learning to use the trapeze will be difficult at first but once you listen to the advice of the trained professionals, you are in for a wonderful time.
