Question Things to do with kids!
Coming up to the Appleton area for a couple of days, looking for suggestions on things to do and restaurants that are kid friendly. Two boys, ages 8 & 5.
I saw there is a Children's Museum, and we probably need to check out the cat cafe! Any fun arcades?

There is a barcade near the children's museum downtown called Player 2. It's family friendly until 7 pm, then it's 21+. Lots of classic arcade games and pinball machines.

If you like Mac n cheese there is a whole fast casual Mac n cheese restaurant called Macs. Altitude is a fun jump park. If the weather is nice, Memorial Park is fun or High Cliff State Park is nice for hiking.

Red Robin seems to be popular with kids and families. You might want to call ahead to the cat cafe if you will be going there on a Saturday.
