Cincinnati, Northern Kentucky has tons of amazing things to do in the spring, summer, and fall months. Whether that’s enjoying Smell Park downtown or Washington Park, one of the mini-parks. Maybe you wanna go to a Reds game at Great American Ballpark. Maybe you wanna go have some fun ride on roller coasters at Kings Island. But I’ll be honest, in the winter, it can get a little bit cold and challenging to figure out what are we gonna do in these couple months when it gets really cold and we can’t be outside. So if you’re looking for things to do in Cincinnati or Northern Kentucky, I want to introduce you to one of my favorite attractions, which is good all year round, but particularly in those colder winter months when you can’t do a lot of other things outside. The Newport Aquarium has amazing fun events where you can go inside, get warm, see some amazing sights, and have some fun. Let’s check out Newport Aquarium!
