Rainy-day activities for kids in Chandler
12 places
- 1. Arizona MillsThis large indoor mall is home to Sea Life Aquarium and Legoland Discovery Center, making it a reliable hub for primary school children. The wide, carpeted corridors are easy to navigate with strollers, though the food court area can become loud and crowded during peak weekend hours.
- 2. Chandler Fashion CenterThe indoor play area here is well-suited for toddlers and younger children who need to burn off energy in a confined space. Parents will notice plenty of peripheral seating and a layout that keeps sightlines clear, though it is worth bringing socks as they are required for play.
- 3. Phoenix Premium OutletsWhile primarily an outlet center, the covered walkways provide some protection, but it is less ideal for heavy rain than a fully enclosed mall. It is worth a look for families who prefer a stroller-friendly stroll between shops with quick access to the food court.
