Lots of folks might speak of mini golf or even bumper boats if asked about Adventure Landing in Winston-Salem, North Carolina at 1600 South Stratford Road. Adventure Landing does have those fun outdoor activities, and they also offer an indoor arcade, full of a wide variety of games.

If you have kids of different ages, interests, and abilities, it can be pretty challenging to find activities to enjoy together as a family. One nice benefit of the indoor arcade at Adventure Landing is that they have games that might appeal to different ages and personalities. After purchasing tokens, the kids can try their hand at seeing how many tickets they can win. Those tickets can be redeemed for prizes.

Some games are basically games of chance, those that might appeal to the kids who just want to play without having to think a lot. Not very coordinated? Games of chance can be lots of fun!

Other games encourage those who lean toward sports. Those who are very skilled might earn quite a few tickets at the sports games. These games can encourage hand-eye coordination. Games of strategy often appeal to the thinkers in the family. Can they outsmart the machine and go for the big prize? These games might encourage critical thinking skills. My kids were particularly drawn to the Deal or No Deal game.

Some games resemble motorcycles and other types of transportation. These might appeal to those who like to combine screen play with riding skills and might give the kids a good core workout. A few games look like updated pinball games – I noticed several parents who tended to gravitate toward those!

Adventure Landing in Winston-Salem, North Carolina is located at 1600 South Stratford Road near Hanes Mall. Yes, this is the place with mini golf that has the giraffe, elephant, waterfall, and cave. Summer months often challenge the adults to find fun family-friendly activities that the kids will enjoy. When my family visited Adventure Landing, they definitely enjoyed the bumper boats!

Bumper boats are a fun way to cool off on a hot day. They are also a good, safe way to take out your frustrations on your loved ones. Not that children would ever get on your last nerve or anything. If you need to turn the activity into something educational, well, you could always say the kids are learning driving skills and discovering properties of water.

Riding the bumper boats was so much fun. After getting in, you can quickly learn how to drive the boats and off you go! They are armed with water guns...yes, you might get pretty wet on this, depending on the aim of others riding the boats and whether and how well you can dodge and duck. Actually one of the staff members got doused as I was getting in my boat when I accidentally hit the trigger. Kudos to her because she just laughed and was very nice in responding to my goof. She even took several of these great pictures!

This would be a particularly good activity when temperatures are warmer, and you might want to either do a round of miniature golf or play arcade games inside while you dry off after riding the boats. One of my kids usually hates to get wet, but she wanted to try riding and actually enjoyed herself. All of us did!
