Five Out of the Ordinary Things to Do with Kids

March 5, 2026 by Lynne Streeter Childress

If you’re tired of taking the kids to the same old playgrounds and activities, here are some adventures that you might not have considered that will make wonderful memories for all!

Run or Walk a 5K

Get up and get moving with the whole family by walking or running a local 5K. Enjoy nature, get some exercise, and maybe support a good cause. The Annapolis Running Festival is coming up and has a 5K option.

Get Away (but not far)

Book a night at a local hotel for you and your kids. Order room service, watch hotel cable, swim in the indoor pool, and wear comfy PJs– all things your kids will get a kick out of!

Take a Stroll and Learn Something

Discover things you didn’t know about Annapolis by taking a walking tour of sites both familiar and unknown to you! Tour with a professional tour guide and a group of people, or download a self-guided tour on your phone. Watermark and Historic Annapolis both offer a variety of tours.

Introduce Your Kids To Cool Music

Show your kids a different type of culture by taking them to see an artist that YOU like. Rams Head On Stage is a great venue for family-friendly shows with easy parking and dining on-site.

Take a Family Trip To a Winery

It’s Maryland Wine Month! Vineyards have more than wine! Many of them have activities that your family can enjoy, like shopping and cornhole, while you sip a glass. And most have fancy mocktails and cheese plates kids enjoy. Check out Great Frogs Winery in Annapolis for live music and other fun events.

Here’s to unusual fun!

The Latest from our Facebook Page

Calm for a Cure is b

Calm for a Cure is back for its fifth year running, and our annual Free Day of Care has fully doubled in size this year, to our Community Supporter's Even Keel Wellness Spa's two newest locations for the first time!!!

For five years, this day has meant one thing: complimentary care for anyone whose life has been touched by cancer. On Sunday, October 18, they're opening all four locations for the first time - Annapolis, Baltimore, Crofton, and Columbia. Massages, facials, spray tans, Reiki, and more, at no cost.

Registration is by phone only, and space is limited - call your location directly:
Annapolis (410) 990-0111
Baltimore (410) 862-0928
Crofton (443) 292-4100
Columbia (443) 542-2413

Calm for a Cure itself has also grown and, with the help of Harmony Foundation, offers free treatments every month of the year to people affected by cancer and to caregivers nominated by their community. Know someone who could use a day like this? Anyone can nominate a person living with cancer, or someone caring for them.

As always, all October long $25 from every $150 gift card goes directly to the Harmony Foundation, and we'll match every dollar raised from both gift cards and direct donations at the end of October.
