The Natural History Museum is a must see in Norman! The exhibits are nicely displayed and the collection is unbelievable. There are some wonderfully huge dinosaur skeletons, activities for children, and guided tours. The Museum is nicely managed. This is definitely a place worth seeing at least once (if not more) !!

While this place may not be as flashy as bigger zoos, they have some of the friendliest keepers and some really great animals. They have a lot of animals that bigger zoos dont even have. This is a great place to take kids. This is a wonderful zoo that is very enjoyable, as long as you don’t mind getting a little messy.

Thunderbird stables is definitely the place to go if you're interested in riding but can't keep your own horse/ field. Most of the horses are trained for novice riders (so if you really are into professional riding it may not be the best place). The horses all line up and go along but if you get a younger one you will have some room to guide them yourself! They ask about your experience when matching you up with a horse, so be sure to be honest!
Also! It's a great place for birthday parties if you're looking for creative ideas!

Skateland 2020 is conveniently located in the center of Norman. It is an awesome place to have fun with kids of all ages. They really do cater to the entire family. They have skate sizes from tiny to huge! My children love to have their birthday parties at Skateland. They offer parties where you can rent the entire rink. They also offer many other great ways to have fun, for anyone who may not want to skate. They have video games, pool tables, and my family's favorite... air hockey!!! They have fun music, and a great snackbar, that includes items for everyone. The price is average, as far as skating rinks go, but it really is worth it, for the fun that you will have!

You can't go wrong with Lake Thunderbird! The entertainment is totally free! If you're into camping, boating, water skiing, swimming, fishing, hiking or all the above then definitely make a trip out of it!
The camping does have a very small fee associated with it as do boat rentals, but if you have your own boat then it is completely free!
The only negative thing about Thunderbird is some locations of the lake are a little dirty... dubbing thunderbird lake as "dirtybird"

"Perfect Swing" is virtually perfect. It is a fun center which revolves around the whole family. There is golf (professional set up and court) for the elders, putt putt for youngers, large screen TVs for watching the games, batting cages, video game archades and more! The best time to visit is in the summer when all rides (including go carts and bumper boats) are avaliable, its relatively cheap and full of fun!

i love this theatre because it is so inexpensive. while the concessions stand is outrageously overpriced, the $1 you pay for a movie makes it all worth it. Since you never know if you're going to really enjoy the movie, its nice to know that you didnt blow almost $10 on a dud.

Are you into art or have a creative mind or way of thinking. Well If you live in Norman you know there is not much to do. I used to go to the Fred Jones Art Museum all the time. Haven't been there in a while but really look forward to getting back into the groove. This is such a nice museum right on OU campus. They just recently remodled it. It is nicer than ever. They have wonderful pictures and paintings. It is really and interesting place to go. Best part of it is its free. I belive they take donations. And usually there is no one in there when you go except for security. They like to watch you and make sure you don't touch anything. This is a perfect place to visit.

Looking for entertainment Hastings is the best place to find it in Norman. They have a Huge selection of movies. Hastings offers renting or buying Games for any console too. Or if you like to relax get some coffee and check out the great book section. If none of this is interesting to you they also have knew and used CD's too. Hasting also sells some clothing, snacks, and little nik nacks too. I recommend getting a Hastings card if you haven't already. And get to renting right away. Hastings was just recently remodled and looks great too. You are always bound to find something you will be interested in.
