Most people are ready to bet that the city of Kamloops, British Columbia is set to be one of the most popular cities in Canada for 2019. The simple answer to why is real estate. Kamloops is expected to see the second-largest jump in average housing price in 2019. As the number of home sales continues to go up and unemployment stays low, you can expect families to start looking at Kamloops as a prime location for their families. Here is a look at 5 family activities to do in Kamloops.
British Columbia Wildlife Park
You will win the day as parents when you bring the kids to BC Wildlife Park. The kids will have the opportunity to be outdoors most of the day and have the chance to see over 40 different species of animals. Guided tours are offered of course which include animal feedings and a wealth of knowledge from your tour guide. This is definitely a trip the kids won’t forget, nor will they stop talking about.

You will have to wait for the summer months to enjoy Riverside Park, which is home to Variety Kids Centennial Water Park. The kids will be able to run around, go for a swim, play at the playground or even play a game of lawn bowling.

The bonus of a day like this is that the kids will most likely be ready for bed as soon as you get back into the house.
