What To Do With Your Kid To Beat The Heat In Jacksonville

June 27, 20242 min read

It’s summer! The season of popsicles, beach days, and memory making. But here in Jacksonville, it’s also the season of unbearable, sauna-like heat. The only place you want to be between the hours of 10 AM and 6 PM is indoors with air conditioning. Every parent with a toddler is facing the same problem: what the heck can I do with my kid to beat the heat?

It’s too hot for the park. The library doesn’t allow for much running around. Besides the pool and beach, it can be hard to find activities that won’t leave you and your toddlers in a miserable, sunburnt puddle of sweat. So where is a safe, fun place for my child to run around and burn off some energy...with air conditioning?!

We know the place that’s about to become your go to spot: The Enchanted Cottage! We are an indoor (and air conditioned!) playspace for ages 4 and under in Jacksonville Beach!

Picture 3,000 square feet of open space to play, with $12,000 worth of magical toys that will keep your toddlers entertained for hours! There is also plenty of comfortable seating for you to relax and chat with other parents (and sip on complementary organic mold free coffee for our members!), with a completely open line of sight to keep an eye on your kiddos the whole time. So many of our members meet up with their mom friends for a double kid and mom “playdate”! It’s like a huge living room—that you don’t have to clean! 

Love going to story time at the library? We have story time and circle time every single day! This is because not only are we a fun place to play, but everything in our space was designed to maximize your child’s brain. The Enchanted Cottage is the one stop shop for your toddler’s entertainment and development!
