When you have a family consisting of kids of all ages, it can be hard to get everyone to agree on an activity, especially while on vacation. Everyone has their own agenda and kids can be rather stubborn about it. Get the whole family on the same page, even your teenager, with these fun kid-approved activities in Corpus Christi.

Views from Above

Every single member of your family won’t be able to help having their breath taken away by the views you’ll see on a flight over all of Corpus Christi on a Texan Warbird Adventure. Board the vintage Navy aircraft and soar along the Corpus Christi Bay taking in aerial views of downtown, the USS Lexington and the gorgeous Harbor Bridge. Even your teen-aged kids will enjoy the opportunity to capture extraordinary photos for their Instagram!

Find it at 1000 International Dr., Corpus Christi, TX 78406.

Mini Golf

Nothing brings a family together quite like friendly competition and nothing gets people as competitive as mini golf! Galaxy Glow Mini Golf, located on the lower level of the Sunrise Mall, is space-themed and outfitted with stunning glow paint that will have everyone giggling about their illuminated outfits.
