Let’s have family fun in Birmingham, AL

In our last blog, we focused on date night. This month we are going to focus on having fun as a family in Birmingham, Alabama. In our line of work, we often encounter families who are going through divorce, or who have recently gone through divorce and trying to find their new “normal”. We like to remind them how important it is to show their children it is possible to have fun and enjoy life, even if there are still feelings of grief for what life once was. While it is important to acknowledge their feelings, it is also important to experience joy and make new memories.

 There are some great places to enjoy as a family in Birmingham. Here are some of our favorites:

McWane Science Center provides hands-on experiences for visitors of all ages to learn about science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. It is a great time for families to explore together and learn while having fun.

 Vulcan Park & Museum showcases the world’s largest cast iron statue, standing at 56 feet tall. It provides the perfect opportunity to get outdoors and take in amazing views of Birmingham and the park, as well as visit the museum with interactive insight to the history of Vulcan and Birmingham.

Regions Field is home to the minor league baseball team, the Birmingham Barons. There is great family fun to be had for all while watching the game, enjoying ballpark food, a play area for the kids, and ending the night with fireworks.

Red Mountain Park is the ideal place to visit for a family who loves adventure. With over 15 miles of trails, tree houses, an off-leash dog park, and zip-lining, there are many opportunities to make everlasting memories as a family.

We hope you enjoy some family fun in Birmingham, Alabama. If you feel like you need additional help in reconnecting with your children, Sparrow Counseling is here to help!
