When we talk about communities in suburban Phoenix, we often cover areas that are dedicated to people who’re retired or are approaching retirement age. There is no doubt, after all, that the Northwest Valley is home to some of the best age-restricted communities in the Southwestern United States. With that said, communities like Surprise, Arizona, and other nearby cities have a lot more to offer than just retirement communities. In fact, these communities are also great for raising families and have a lot to offer in terms of entertainment and great schools.
Looking for family-friendly activities in and around Surprise to keep the little ones entertained? Take a look at these exciting options.
- Spend the day at Surprise Community Park
Who doesn’t love spending the day at the park? And the best part about living in Surprise is that you get to benefit from great weather all year long.
The community park is the perfect place to let your children run around in a safe environment while you sit back and read a book or chat with your friends. There, they can run around and burn off some of that excessive energy.
- Plan a trip to the Surprise Aquatic Center
The Surprise Aquatic Center is a family-friendly swimming facility that’s available to people of all ages. But unlike your average swimming centers, this one has an aquatic playground that’s built specifically with children in mind. It has water slides, diving boards, and playground equipment for children to splash around in.
- Watch a game at Surprise Stadium
What’s more fun than watching a baseball game in person? The city of Surprise is home to Surprise Stadium, a baseball park where two Cactus League teams, the Kansas City Royals and the Texas Rangers, do their spring training. It’s also the home to the Surprise Saguaros, a Minor League Baseball team in the Arizona Fall League.
