Fun for teens in Tulsa? Best malls? waterparks? etc

We will be in Tulsa on business at the convention center. Our 2 teen daughters (13 %26amp; 15) are traveling with us. Any suggestions on fun things for them to do? Also, directions from Convention Center would be appreciated. Thanks for your help.

Fun for teens in Tulsa? Best malls? waterparks? etc

I kept thinking someone from Tulsa would respond, but I guess not.

Bell%26#39;s is the old, family amusement park that%26#39;s been serving Tulsa for half a century. East of downtown, not too far from the convention center. http://www.bellsfamilyfun.com/bells/

The biggest mall is Woodland Hills, on the south side at 71st and Memorial. http://www.simon.com/mall/default.aspx?ID=795 It%26#39;s one of those gigantic malls which, personally, I can live without. Closer to downtown and a lot more managable is the Promenade Mall at 41st and Yale. http://www.tulsapromenade.com/

If you have a car, the Oklahoma Acquarium in Jenks is quite nice. http://www.okaquarium.org/

The convention center has a more complete list of attractions on their web page www.tulsaconvention.com/dt_attractions.asp

Hope that helps!

Fun for teens in Tulsa? Best malls? waterparks? etc

lived there for two years so I would think the malls and the waterpark are your best bet...here is some info on the waterpark...never went there so can%26#39;t vouch for it

Located at 21st and Yale in midtown, this large water park features the largest wave pool in Oklahoma, as well as five water slides, a water roller coaster, a kiddie pool for the little ones, and more. Open seasonally, this place provides the perfect escape from Tulsa%26#39;s hot summer days. Admission is good for all day, so bring the kids and don%26#39;t forget the sunscreen!

Admission: $17.95 general admission, free for children three and under. Call for group rates and special promotional discounts

In addition to the above, check out the Tulsa Air %26amp; Space Museum, www.tulsaairandspacemuseum.com; it even has a new planetarium.

If they like books, the Tulsa City County Library, central branch, is adjacent to the convention center. Often visited by homeless, but secure.

If you can accompany them %26amp; if they%26#39;re in to working out, the Downtown YMCA has good gym facilities %26amp; a great pool; however, all minors must be accompanied by a parent. Visitor passes are inexpensive.

The IMAX Theater is showing Superman, with 20 min. in 3D. It%26#39;s located at Highway 169, 71st St. South Exit, just to the SouthEast of the intersection. Saw it over the weekend, good movie, great effects; wished for more 3D.

For a high-end open air mall, check out Utica Square, located at 21st %26amp; Utica so not too far from downtown.

Hope you all have fun while in Tulsa!

Thanks for all the info. I checked out the water park on line and I printed a $5 off admission coupon. I%26#39;m sure the girls will enjoy everything.
