In this video we show you 5 kid friendly, fun things to do in Richmond VA. If you have kids that need entertainment or need to get some of their energy out, these family activities will definitely deliver. You will get to see the Metro Richmond Zoo, Defy Trampoline Park, Maymont Park, Draftcade, and The Science Musuem of Virginia.

We start the video off with our two favorite kid friendly activities. The first of which is visiting the Metro Richmond Zoo. The zoo is located in Moseley VA and open year round. During our visit we spent about 2 hours at the zoo and it was a great time. Our daughter expended a ton of energy, and thoroughly enjoyed her time seeing all the animals. The highlight for our zoo visit was feeding the different animals including giraffes, camels, and goats & sheep.

Our other favorite kid friendly activity was going to the Defy Trampoline Park . Defy has two locations in Richmond Va, and the one we visited while making the video is located in Short Pump just across from the mall. Our daughter had a smile on her face the entire time we were at Defy, and honestly we did too. It was far more fun for us than we had anticipated. We spent most of our time just bouncing in the open trampoline area of Defy, but there was a lot of other things to do there too including a dodge ball area, a basketball court, a playground, and more. We highly recommend visiting Defy!

Next we show you Maymont Park which is like a visit to a miniature zoo in downtown Richmond. We would start with the Maymont Farm and then follow the paved walking trails down. Along the way you will see a couple of animal habitats, and at the bottom of the trails you will enter the Japanese Gardens of Maymont which are beautiful. We ended our visit to Maymont by visiting the Robins Nature Center which is like a small aquarium exhibit with animals native to the James River Ecosystem.

You will also get to see Draftcade, which just opened up in Short Pump not too long ago. Draftcade was a lot of fun for both parents & kids alike. They offer over 70 retro arcade games and also have skeeball and pinball machines. Inside there is a full service bar with a large rotating draft list for the adults too. Draftcade is a fun experience full of nostalgia.

We end the video with a trip to the Science Musuem of Virginia. Compared to the other 4 activities, we had the least amount of fun at the Science Musuem but that's just us. Our daughter is only 4 years old and the exhibits at the musuem are definitely geared more towards older children. We will go back and visit but we will wait until our daughter is a bit older.
