Cincinnati's Top Free Things to Do
"Make sure that your children are exposed to the wonderful world of art from a young age by bringing them to visit the Cincinnati Art Museum. The museum hosts a number of art experiences for children starting with infants and their parents who are invited to attend a Baby Tour on the third Thursday of each month. Families will also enjoy their Family ARTventure tours on Saturdays and the Family ARTventures Stops on Sundays, where children can get up close and touch various art exhibits."
"You’ll feel like you’re walking through someone’s lovely home at the Taft Museum of Art—as long as that someone owns a Rembrandt. The Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame and Museum shares the team’s fascinating beginning."
"Located across the Ohio River in Covington, KY, the Railway Museum of Greater Cincinnati is an entirely volunteer-run museum that features an incredible collection of authentic trains and railroad equipment. For anyone interested in the history of railroads or trains, this is a must-visit spot. Price: $4 Adults, $2 ages 10 and under (cash only)"
"Next up on our list is Simply Rolled Ice Cream from Over-the-Rhine. From toasted marshmallow to caramel pretzel, this shop has a massive variety of flavors and toppings, which helps explain why it’s such a favorite among locals. What really sets this shop apart, though, is the fact that they make rolls of icecream, which they serve in cups and dishes."
"The shop offers made-to-order ice cream creations with a vegan-friendly option and over 20 toppings and mix-ins. It also offers 10 signature ice cream rolls such as the Pina Colada, Buckeye Madness and seasonal rolls like Orange Rollsicle and Cotton Candy Fizzaz."
"Michael Christner does amazing things with his original Dojo Gelato space in Findlay Market, but he dialed it up to 11 with the addition of his location in Northside. Inventive and delicious sundaes, soft-serve style sorbetto, and dog-friendly outdoor seating make Dojo a great place to hit when you are craving a treat. Christner has never cut any corners with his products."
"Coming in at number 3 on the list is Hello Honey, a shop that has been making homemade ice cream and other desserts from scratch in the heart of downtown Cincy since 2012. The shop itself might be plain and simple, but the quality of their ice cream is out of this world. The menu offers exotic flavors such as thai coconut milk along with more traditional flavors like plain vanilla and chocolate."
"Central Business District's Hello Honey, located at 633 Vine St., is another top choice, with Yelpers giving the spot to score ice cream and frozen yogurt and desserts 4.5 stars out of 139 reviews."
