Beat the Heat in Brea



When it’s hot outside and the kids won’t stop screaming about how bored they are, then it’s time to head out to your favorite water fountain and let the kids run wild.  Karrie, our Northeast OC Editor, is often seen taking her kids to the Home Depot/Babies R’ Us shopping center on Imperial Highway in Brea for some fun in the sun.

Her kids love to play in the shallow fountain, eat lunch at one of the local restaurants (like Subway, Bruegger’s Bagels, Juice it Up, or McDonalds), all while she gets to sit and somewhat relax at one of their tables (that are often shaded with an umbrella).  There is a large grass area of to the side, so you can also opt to throw down a blanket and feed your kids a picnic that you packed up from home (great way to save some money).   Another benefit about the location is since it’s centrally located in a shopping center, there are many bathrooms to choose from when your kids run up screaming that they have to go and can’t hold it.

Another hidden gem in Orange County that offers free family entertainment that your kids actually enjoy!
