Jolly Days Winter Wonderland Review
On Saturday, November 22, my husband, oldest daughter and great-nephew decided to head to the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis. Even though it was on my November Family Friendly Events calendar, I totally forgot that it was the opening of Jolly Days Winter Wonderland. I was excited because I had never been to a Jolly Days’ event.
The lobby area is so festive with its snowflakes, over-sized snow globes and two-story Yule Slide.
Two-Story Yule Slide!?! Oh, yes! Jeremiah was pretty excited about it too. Heather took him up and got in line.
My husband and I stood at the bottom to get pictures. It looks like so much fun.
I really want to try it sometime. I guess we will have to make another trip back there. You are never too old for the Yule Slide.
There are so many fun activities to participate in. Your child can “skate” in his/her socks on the special “ice” rink. There is a place for a fun snowball fight. The snowball fight is set for certain times so be sure to check out the schedule so you don’t miss it. The Snow Castle is beautiful but you can’t climb on it if you are too big. It has a slide too but it’s much smaller than the Yule Slide.
Jeremiah’s favorite part was the “ice” fishing. He spent a lot of time at each of the holes. He hooked quite a few.
We missed the area where you could “bake” holiday treats. I guess we will have to go back and visit.
There was one more thing we missed. We were too early for Santa’s arrival. He didn’t arrive until the 28th of November. He is there now so that’s one more reason we need to make another trip to the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis.
Have you made it to Jolly Days Winter Wonderland? What is your favorite part? Be watching for me on the Yule Slide. I’m gonna get my turn!

Love it. :)
So glad you enjoyed it.
We LOVE Jolly Days! I think it is my girls' favorite time to visit The Children's Museum (although we go all year round). The oldest loves 'ice skating' and the youngest is mesmerized by that giant snow globe. They also both love the slide.
Glad to hear your family had fun there too. I can't wait to go back and have my turn down the slide. We may head back again this weekend.
Very cool! We went to see the Terra Cotta Soldiers this summer and only made it through two floors so we definitely need to make a trip back sometime.
If you live in or near Indy, it makes sense to buy an annual pass. Then if you only make it to one exhibit you don't feel like you have wasted your money.
