Top 5 Baltimore for Teens
Miss Shirley’s is truly a Baltimore institution. The restaurant started with one small cafe and has expanded to three locations after word spread about their delicious food. They specialize in breakfast and brunch, but lunch is also available. There’s often a wait, but we promise that it’s worth it!
The American Visionary Art Museum, or AVAM, describes itself as “America's official national museum and education center for intuitive, self-taught artistry”. You won’t find any Monets or Picassos there, but you will find wacky and wonderful art from a variety of innovative, lesser-known artists. AVAM is a great choice if you’re looking to break out of the rut of traditional museums and explore a different side of the visual arts!
This Natural Environmental Area covers 1,900 acres of serpentine barren. The landscape is unlike most others in Maryland is a great spot to check out with older kids. You’ll find that there isn’t much shade so it’s best to check it out on a day that’s overcast or cooler, but you won’t regret hiking this unique trail!
Kids ages 13 and over will love driving go-karts that reach up to 50 miles per hour at this indoor racetrack. (Younger riders 8 and over can drive karts that hit 25). Kids over 13 can also try their hand at axe throwing. If your teen is looking for a thrill, Autobahn is the place to go!
Babe Ruth Birthplace and Museum
Baltimore is known for Camden Yards, but head down a side street near the stadium and you’ll find another hidden gem. The Babe Ruth Birthplace and Museum is a fascinating look into the life and career of Baltimore’s baseball hero. If you’ve got a sports-loving teen, the museum is a must-see!
