    Lockhart Texas with Kids: Fun Things to Do

    Fun Things to Do with Kids in Lockhart Texas

    Our family has a goal of exploring four small towns this year, so we headed to Lockhart, Texas. We loved exploring Lockhart Texas with kids!

    Lockhart, Texas, is located approximately 30 minutes south of Austin. It’s a quaint town with a lot of history. We parked in the main square on E. San Antonio Street right outside the Southwest Museum of Clocks & Watches, which was the perfect base for exploring the area.

    What do you do with your kids on the weekend?

    I had a great weekend with my family! As their ages change, what we find ourselves doing changes, too. Now my kids are 8 years-old and 6 years-old. It has me wondering how others answer the question: What do you do with your kids on the weekend?

    This weekend, we did one of my favorite things: We took a day trip to a small Texas town. We try to take this kind of trip at least four times a year. This time, we went to Lampasas, Texas.

    When I plan these kinds of trips, I look for destinations that are within about an hour’s drive. Then I use Trip Advisor … Read More
