Well, here we are. It’s officially winter in New England (as you probably know). To many, this presents the excellent annual opportunity to bundle up and head out into the snow-covered outdoors to explore our seasonal wonderland.
But not all of us are quite so… outdoorsy, especially once the temperatures drop. Not to mention that having you and your family cooped up inside for hours on end may already have you pulling your hair out.
So, need a way out of the house without having to spend too much time in the cold? Today, let’s explore just a few of the most fun, family-friendly places to visit that don’t require a winter jacket.
Wamesit Lanes Family Entertainment Center
The Wamesit Lanes Family Entertainment Center in Tewksbury, MA, has a little something for everyone in the family. The entertainment center offers tenpin and candlepin bowling, excellent arcade games, golf simulators, and more.
All that fun can work up an appetite. Luckily, Wamesit Lanes has a full-service restaurant right on-site, serving all your pub favorites. Yes, this includes a full bar for those 21+. You might also want to check out the Wamesit’s heated patio igloos for a unique outdoor dining experience. Escapology Tewksbury is also right down the street!

Altitude Trampoline Park
Let’s help your kids burn off some of that winter break energy. Altitude Trampoline Park in Billerica, MA, is a great place to set the little ones loose on a literal off-the-walls adventure. Altitude is one of the largest trampoline parks around, with around 15,000 square feet of wall-to-wall trampolines.
Once you enter the park, guests are invited to participate in a wide variety of exciting activities. These include 3D dodgeball, basketball dunning, battle beams, and gymnastics. Additionally, Altitude is one of few trampoline parks with an on-site rock climbing wall.
If your son or daughter has a birthday coming up, the park makes for a great, active winter-time celebration. Reservations for other special group events are also available. In addition, the park also offers toddler time for the little ones in your life and sensory-friendly Saturdays.
