🌳 HIKE + FOOD PAIRING 🇬🇷
I love combining our outings like this! Hiking and eating are 2 of my favorites.
📍 Walnut Creek Metropolitan Park, 12138 N Lamar Blvd, Austin
🥾 We did the short loop trail. We started at the playground and the trail was 1.25 miles long. It took us about an hour.
🛝 We also stayed and played at the playground both before and after the hike.
🇬🇷 @santorinicafe.atx is one of our favorite Greek restaurants! It’s 2 minutes from Walnut Creek and they have a cute dog/kid friendly patio with toys for the kids (mostly broken but my kids didn’t care). We love their authentic Greek food!
📍 11800 N Lamar Blvd, Austin

Spend a full weekend or even just a day and pack in all this fun while you’re at @visitmarblefalls 🙌
🥾 Start your blue sky day off with a crisp hike at @inkslakesp (you can camp here as well!)
We did the Devils Waterhole hike at Inks Lake. There are many different trails you can do here. It’s also a favorite for summer time swimming!
🍔Grab a tasty lunch and a beer at @double_horn_brewing and enjoy their patio! We tried the fried pickles, salad, wings, and hot honey chicken and everything was delicious! 😋
🍭 We had to explore the charming downtown area with stops in adorable shops like @mslollipopparties @houseofcheesemf and @choccolattestx 🍦Don’t forget to play some xylophones and add to the “Before I Die” Wall!
🎳 Next stop was bowling and mini golf at @putters.and.gutters ⛳️ They also have an arcade and go karts!
🍺 Relax with a beer while the kids play on the playground at @stwbrewing Save The World Brewing Co (bonus for those of you with Hops For Houses Passports: this one is a participating brewery!) we love the new playground they recently added (same designer as the one who made the playground for Meanwhile Brewing!)
Marble Falls is such a fun and easy getaway from Austin with so much for kids too!

🥰Why we love it:
Here is a space that’s exclusively just for kids with sensory issues, special needs, and disabilities. We love that they get their own space to play and hang out without feeling over stimulated or overwhelmed. We also love the potential to meet other special needs friends and build a community here in Austin. Plus it’s this is a local mom-owned business (my favorite!)
⭐️ Tips:
👉Please respect the rules: this is strictly for kids with special needs and not open to the general public.
👉After your initial consultation to begin your membership, you do not need to schedule play sessions in advance. No reservations needed!
👉No classes or therapy offered. It’s simply a place to safely play!
👉Not a drop-off place (a parent must stay with their kid at all times)
