12 Days of Memphis Christmas: Snowy Nights In My Big Backyard

The Memphis Botanic Garden has a giant garden just for kids with activities and all sorts of interactive stations for them to use their imaginations. At Christmas, "My Big Backyard" is converted into a winter wonderland. 

There are themed lights along Playhouse Lane with a musical light show. There's falling snow, giant Snow Globs, crafts, a Giant Light Bright, and so much more!! I don't know about you, but I want to go! Doesn't that sound magical?

Dates: Fridays & Saturdays November 29 - December 14; daily December 17-30 (closed Christmas Eve and Christmas Day). Last admission is at 8 p.m.

Members $7 / Non-members $10. Children under 2 are free.
