Where can families go when it’s too hot outside? We’ve got the answer to where you can go to beat the summer heat! During our inaugural Summer Family Favorites contest, we had readers vote for their favorite indoor spot when it’s hot outside and these are the top 5 places!
During our first Summer Family Favorites contest, we had readers vote on three different categories:
- Best Frozen Treat

1st Place: Best Indoor Fun to Beat the Heat (Summer, 2021)
Big Air Trampoline Park
36 Park Woodruff Drive, Greenville
660 Spartan Boulevard #200, Spartanburg
Kidding Around readers LOVE trampoline parks! Big Air is always a popular spot when we get questions in the Kidding Around Community Groups about where people can have birthday parties. Big Air is great for getting the kids out and active any day, not just for birthdays! But don’t take our word for it, check out why readers voted Big Air The Kidding Around Family Favorites For Best Indoor Spot To Beat!
We’ve just blended our family, and trampoline parks have been a great outlet for stress and opportunity for us to play and bond! We are SO excited to have Big Air right around the corner from us
