Your 2026 ParentMap Summer Adventure Guide has landed!
Turn back the clock and show your kids what you were really like in the ‘90s when you plan a day of nostalgic activities that will leave everyone craving more. Flannel grunge gear not required.
Then, double down on cool trends at one of our favorite local boba tea shops. Don’t worry, your kids can help you figure out how to order, or let our writer be your guide.
If travel is on your summer agenda, why not head down to our sister city of the south and check out the wildly imaginative world of artist Mike Bennett. Known as a joymaker around the Rose City, his new aquarium has everyone talking — probably because there’s not a drop of water in it. This one falls into the worth-the-drive category for sure!
Get to planning — summer is almost here!
