CRYSTAL BRIDGES - The museum itself is excellent, general admission is free, and the property includes 134 acres of Ozark landscape and nearly five miles of trails, outdoor sculptures, ponds, and the Frank Lloyd Wright Bachman-Wilson House. It's very easy to spend half a day here without feeling like you're just walking around an art museum.

SCOTT FAMILY AMAZEUM - If younger kids are involved, this belongs near the top. It's an interactive children's museum with hands-on science, art, engineering, climbing, water, pretend-play, and maker activities.
DOWNTOWN BENTONVILLE - Walk the square, shop, eat, get ice cream, and then walk or bike the trails toward Crystal Bridges. Bentonville is unusually easy to turn into an entire family day without having a rigid itinerary.
WALMART MUSEUM - Discover Walmart's journey from small-town store to a global retailer — and Mr. Sam's vision for helping people all over the world save money and live better.

DOWNTOWN ROGERS - Walk around, shop, eat, visit Railyard Park, and then head over to Lake Atalanta. It's especially easy to bundle all three into one outing.

The Civilian Conservation Corps used native materials to build the park’s rustic-style wood and stone structures that mirror the surrounding natural beauty. It now stands as one of the most intact CCC sites in the U.S., with a legacy you can see in its trails and buildings like its original cabins
