What to Do in Branson with Grandkids 

The question is not "what is there to do in Branson with grandkids," but rather "what do we have time to do?" The opportunities for timeless fun are endless in Branson, no matter how long you are here or how many times you have visited. 

Branson was originally put on the map for our abundance of quality, wholesome live shows, and that famous industry is still thriving today. From over 150 live shows in the city, we've provided the top live shows for kids. 

Family fun attractions are another huge draw for Branson. Visitors love our interactive museums like Titanic Museum Attraction and WonderWorks. You can also be sure that Silver Dollar City, Branson's 1880s style theme park with thrilling rides, seasonal festivals, tasty treats and master craftsmen, is just as incredible as everyone says. Many of our family-fun parks like Shepherd of the Hills Adventure Park, The Track Family Fun Parks and Bigfoot Fun Park, provide a safe place for the grandkids to play at their own pace while the grandparents snap pictures from a distance. 

Outdoor adventures can also be a top memory maker in the Ozark Mountains. Take the grandkids on a walk, hike or bike ride. Or rent a boat and enjoy a day on one of Branson's three pristine lakes. 

Don't forget about shopping! Find your favorite memorabilia and novelty items in Historic Downtown Branson or at The Grand Village Shops. For steals of deals on name-brand items, head to Tanger Outlets or Branson Landing.
