Local kids activities!

   I realize this is the world, wide web. But I'm sure there must be a few of you local to me in the Green Bay area. So I thought I would compile this list just for you! It's a number of places that are just for kids, or very kid-friendly. I tried to stick within about an hour's travel time of Green Bay.
 
   Check their websites for seasonal times and prices. Some even have certain days that are discounted or free! A few of the play spots are also play and eat. (They serve food.)
