They've been to Telus Spark but he wasn't old enough to really enjoy it. He loves the zoo but they go often already, so I'm hoping for something different.
As someone who is writing this whilst trying to herd a 3 and 5 year old, this is definitely right in my wheel house….

1) I know you covered this but zoo is number one in this house and we haven’t had much luck with the science center.
2) Our kids looooove Heritage park for some reason. I don’t get it, but they have a blast every time we take them.
3) Aspen Crossing does a bunch of cool themed train rides for kids. I mentioned in another thread our last experience wasn’t fantastic, so maybe look at recent Google reviews. I’m willing to say our one poor experience was just a one off thing. https://aspencrossing.com/
4) Our local swimming pool/rec center had super cheap annual passes for families. Our kids loved swimming when they were that age.
5) Both kids have loved Flames, Wranglers and Cavalry FC games.
6) we haven’t done Calaway park yet, but I think 2 might still be a bit young? Someone else can chime in for sure.

I’ll post back if I can think anything else I’ve missed that they’ve really enjoyed!
