Really great Zoo! Lot's to do. They have a small water park area if you need to cool the kids down in summer. https://www.houstonzoo.org/ The Zoo lights are worth seeing - if you can walk there so much better as getting parking close is a big deal!

Great train ride for the kids! The train also stops at the Miller Outdoor Theater (opposite the Houston Museum of Natural Science) - much closer to the house if you just want to take a ride. You can then get off at the Zoo!
