The highlight for young explorers is the 2.5-acre Mays Family Adventure Garden, where children can splash in the meandering No Name Creek, navigate the Prickly Pear hedge maze, scramble through log scrambles, and build forts in the Tangle. Families can wander the Texas Native Trails to admire changing autumn foliage on bald cypress trees, explore the glass conservatories filled with tropical palms and desert succulents, and enjoy garden picnics on the spacious Greehey Lawn. Family Experience & Accessibility: • Stroller Accessibility: Wide, well-paved accessible paths connect all major gardens and the Family Adventure Garden; wagons and strollers welcomed. • Nursing & Rest Spots: Clean family restrooms and baby changing stations at the Welcome Center and Family Adventure Garden pavilion; shaded benches throughout. • Age Suitability: Outstanding for all ages, from toddlers eager for water and nature play to older kids and adults exploring botany. • Sensory Tips: Natural soothing sounds of cascading water, rustling grasses, and bird song; low-sensory nature retreat away from urban bustle. ## Similar picks in San Antonio - [San Antonio River Walk Thanksgiving Weekend Family River Cruise & Promenade](https://grassyknees.com/san-antonio/activities/san-antonio-river-walk-thanksgiving-weekend-family-river-cruise-and-pr--listing-64906e5faccdeec14e9d03e4) — Nov 27 – Nov 29 · 10:00 AM – 10:00 PM · San Antonio River Walk (Downtown & Rivercenter) · All ages · From $12 · checked Nov 5.
