A 60,000-square-foot crayon-themed indoor playland inside the Shops at Willow Bend: more than 20 hands-on activities, from making your own crayon and coloring a drawing that comes to life as animation to scribbling on a giant canvas, plus a toddler climbing area — the easiest way to spend a Dallas summer day in air conditioning.
💡 Tips
Admission is about $25–30/person, under 2 free, and a little cheaper online, check the website. Weekend afternoons are the most crowded, so arrive at opening; everyone gets a custom crayon to take home. The mall has family restrooms and restaurants.What this place offers
