Consider spending a leisurely afternoon outside at Luthy Botanical Garden, Mount Hawley Park or Lindbergh Park. Be sure to get some family photos at Peoria Zoo, Peoria Riverfront Museum and O'Brien Field while you're out sightseeing near Peoria Heights Observation Tower. At Forest Park Nature Preserve, Spring Bay Fen State Natural Area and Gaylord Wildlife Area, take some time to really appreciate nature.
