Summer is quickly drawing to a close, so it's time to squeeze in as much seasonal fun as you can before the back-to-school grind begins. My oldest is starting his last year of preschool in the fall (cue the tears), and in an effort to make sure we have as much fun together as possible before he starts his last year as a toddler (can I still call him a toddler? Please say yes!), I've started compiling a summer bucket list of activities and events that we can do to take advantage of our fleeting time together. If you're in a similar situation - or you just need to keep the kids occupied and out of the house for a few days a week - this summer bucket list is exactly what you need because most of these things to do in Houston won't be available in the fall!

All dads are different - but regardless of whether the dad in your family is a stay-at-home carer or heads out to work, likes to play ball or prefers video games - he is easily one of the hardest people to shop for. Dad is a superhero in his own right, and with Father's Day right around the corner, it's time to start brainstorming ideas to let Dad know just how much we appreciate him. This Father's Day, we recommend giving Dad the gift of a fun experience and quality time.

Whether the dad in your life is active or into the arts, loves to travel or would rather stay closer to home, we've got you covered with our top 20 Father's Day events spanning all of Houston - from Kemah to The Woodlands and back. There are even some out-of-town experiences that you won't want to miss! Father's Day also falls on Juneteenth in 2022, so there are options to recognize two important events on one day.
