Things To Do In Houston This July
Summer is here and if you have kids that means you’ve heard “I’m bored!” too many times to count. Need a fun, family friendly activity in Houston? There’s always something going on in the greater Houston metro but this summer there are also plenty of great events for the kids. Get your culture on by taking the kids to a play, spending an afternoon listening to story time or take in the Houston Symphony. The 4th of July is this month and that means fireworks. If you aren’t lighting them off in your own backyard there are plenty of great venues putting on spectacular fireworks displays for the 4th of July. Many include music, parades and of course — food!
Have a safe and happy 4th of July!
