Last week, we spent our mornings at home so that I could get some work done while the girls worked on art projects, puzzles, played and read and then after lunch, we ventured out to a favorite Nashville spot. (When we travel, we usually flip this schedule and venture out first thing in the morning for an activity \u2013 visit a museum, a park or take a tour &#8211; and then do something a little more relaxing and low-key in the afternoon \u2013 swim, relax at our hotel, hit a movie or performance). We\u2019ve learned that both at home and while traveling \u2013 one big activity a day with our kids hits our sweet spot.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s a few things we did last week for our afternoon adventures in Nashville that are perfect whether you\u2019re visiting Nashville or you are planning a staycation of your own in Music City:<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-1684 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thewanderingrumpus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Cheekwood-House-1.jpg?resize=349%2C449&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"349\" height=\"449\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thewanderingrumpus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Cheekwood-House-1.jpg?resize=233%2C300&amp;ssl=1 233w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thewanderingrumpus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Cheekwood-House-1.jpg?resize=560%2C721&amp;ssl=1 560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thewanderingrumpus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Cheekwood-House-1.jpg?resize=80%2C103&amp;ssl=1 80w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thewanderingrumpus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Cheekwood-House-1.jpg?w=691&amp;ssl=1 691w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 349px) 100vw, 349px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Cheekwood Estate &amp; Gardens<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cheekwood.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cheekwood<\/a> ranks at the top of my list as favorite kid-friendly spots in all of Nashville.

We head to McKays about once a quarter to trade in books we\u2019ve read and find some new favorites. I love that the girls have the freedom to peruse the books and since they are significantly cheaper and we usually have trade-in credit, they can try new books that peak there interest at a minimal cost.

The Center has been significantly updated in the last 12 months and we had an absolute blast exploring all of the new (&amp; old) exhibits including an amazing moon walk simulation for the older girls, a space exhibit and a severe weather exhibit, among many other things.

There are wonderful events happening here nearly every weekend (Art Festivals, <a href=\"https:\/\/thewanderingrumpus.com\/index.php\/2017\/07\/26\/10-rockin-family-friendly-places-to-hear-music-in-nashville\/\">Musicians Corner<\/a>, Shakespeare in the Park) plus there is a great playground, a pond with ducks and geese, a beautiful walking trail, an amphitheater and the notorious Nashville Parthenon is located here as well &#8211; which my girls adore. Built in 1887, the Parthenon is a full scale replica of the Parthenon in Athens, Greece. There is a 43 foot tall golden Athena statue inside, again, just like the Parthenon housed in Ancient Greece. Today, the Parthenon functions as an art museum and on Saturdays at 11:00 AM families can enter free through the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kidsvilleonline.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kidsville<\/a> event wherein stories and activities are shared at the feet of Athena which are educational and fun. My girls love to explore inside or play an epic god &amp; goddess hide &amp; seek outside among the pillars, play among the Women&#8217;s Suffrage Monument, picnic in the grass and bike around the pond. Plus, on sunny days, several snow cone venders pop up around the park for a sweet treat.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-1685 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thewanderingrumpus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_3257.jpg?resize=360%2C450&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thewanderingrumpus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_3257.jpg?resize=240%2C300&amp;ssl=1 240w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thewanderingrumpus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_3257.jpg?resize=768%2C960&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thewanderingrumpus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_3257.jpg?resize=819%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 819w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thewanderingrumpus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_3257.jpg?resize=560%2C700&amp;ssl=1 560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thewanderingrumpus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_3257.jpg?resize=80%2C100&amp;ssl=1 80w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thewanderingrumpus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/IMG_3257.jpg?w=1780&amp;ssl=1 1780w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>A few other favorite kid-friendly spots that we couldn&#8217;t fit in last week but we visit regularly are <a href=\"http:\/\/fristcenter.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Frist Center<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nashvillezoo.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Nashville Zoo<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/library.nashville.org\/locations\/main-library\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Downtown Library<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/countrymusichalloffame.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Country Music Hall of Fame<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-1683 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thewanderingrumpus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Flora-Fauna.jpg?resize=300%2C450&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thewanderingrumpus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Flora-Fauna.jpg?resize=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thewanderingrumpus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Flora-Fauna.jpg?resize=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 683w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thewanderingrumpus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Flora-Fauna.jpg?resize=560%2C840&amp;ssl=1 560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thewanderingrumpus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Flora-Fauna.jpg?resize=80%2C120&amp;ssl=1 80w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thewanderingrumpus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Flora-Fauna.jpg?w=735&amp;ssl=1 735w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last week my girls were on Fall break and after debating for a couple of days whether or not to take a spontaneous road trip from our hometown of Nashville \u2013 we decided to stay put and enjoy some of our favorite kid-friendly things to do around town.
