Find things to do in Middle Tennessee with Kids

There are infinite options of family friendly things to do in Nashville. We have visited and written about so many places, events, and activities, over the years, we have struggled to categorize everything. This page is a great place to learn more about the resources on Nashville Fun for Families so you can explore and find the perfect family adventure to try next.

Events

Nashville is one of those cities where there is always something going on. The trouble is choosing which event to attend rather than finding a festival or special event to fill your Saturday.

Start with the Calendar

The idea for Nashville Fun for Families came from our need to find things to do on the weekend, when our kids where whining, “I’m bored!” I wanted one place I could look and find ALL the family fun happening on a Saturday in one place. If that is what you are looking for, then the calendar is the place to go.

It may take a minute to open the page; there is a LOT of content, but if you give your phone a few seconds, I promise, it’s worth it!

Things to Do Indoors

There are indoor places made for family fun to visit all over Nashville, and we have articles on a HUGE number of places. We have broken the options down into two categories – Indoor Fun and Indoor Activities.
