Denver Children’s Museum
Curious kids love to learn, so why leave their studies in the classroom? If you schedule a laundry pick-up or drop-off at your nearest laundromat, you’ll have some free time to fill in Denver this week. The Denver Children’s Museum is the perfect place to keep your little ones engaged.
As well as boasting a range of exciting activities that visitors can book, the museum also hosts four key exhibits: Investigate, Imagine, Explore and Create. In each of these sections, children can let loose their imaginations and allow curiosity to take over, all within a safe and secure environment.
Whether they’re learning the laws of physics or immersing themselves in the adventure forest, your children are guaranteed to enjoy an exciting yet educational experience.
The Summit
We know it can be tough keeping older children entertained. As their tastes evolve and they approach their troublesome teens, it becomes harder and harder to find activities that everyone can get on board with.
Look no further than The Summit, based just 25 minutes north of Denver and remarkably close to WaveMAX Laundry in Thornton, Colorado. Leave the laundromat to do its thing, and head to The Summit for an afternoon of unbridled joy and adventure.
The Summit is a fun complex offering visitors the chance to bowl, play laser tag and enjoy a huge arcade—all in one awesome location. As well as all of the activities on offer, they also supply enough food and drinks to keep the whole family satisfied, which is ideal for spontaneous days out you haven’t necessarily planned for.
Bowl those balls, get lost in the arcade, and have an absolute blast in true retro fashion!
Boondocks
If you’ve already been to The Summit, and you’re ready to level up to an even bigger family extravaganza, Boondocks is the perfect place to add to your list.
As well as offering the classic indoor bowling, arcade and laser tag trio, Boondocks also offers a whole range of other outdoor rides and attractions. Whether it’s go-karts, bumper boats, sky walks or mini golf you’re after, this extensive paradise of fun has something for everyone.
Who said laundry stops had to be boring? Head straight from your Denver laundry service to Northglenn, Colorado, and be at Boondocks in no time for unlimited fun for all of the family.
