Best Places for Kids on Rainy Days 

Pittsburgh has plenty of activities to offer families when it’s nice outdoors, but we all know it won’t be sunny every day in Pittsburgh. Whether you’re a mom, dad, sibling or babysitter, it can be a challenge to keep the kids entertained when outdoors is off limits. 

One of my personal favorites is Wheel Mill - an indoor "park" for mountain and BMX bikes for riders of all experience levels with friendly staff and riders. My 11-yr old grandson loves it! Click here to see the list of interesting places compiled by Pittsburgh Magazine.
