While we were in Utah, we tried out a few things we've never done before.  One of them was a little water feature in Liberty Park called the Seven Canyons.  It is a series of cement channels with pools and waterfalls and each stream represents a canyon that leads into the valley.  Wyatt had a lot of fun running and splashing and it was free, free, FREE!  We actually only explored a tiny bit of it because when Wyatt likes something, he tends to fixate on it, so we pretty much split our time between one stream and the giant pool it led to.  It was a bit crowded, but not so much to inhibit his playing.  I would absolutely recommend taking the kids there!

The other place we tried was the Living Planet Aquarium.  It was a bit pricey for what was there.  If we lived in SLC, I would just get a year pass and use the heck out of it.  It was entertaining for a while, but not enough to justify $8 per person.  What Wyatt loved the most was the "Nemo" fish he got from the gift shop.  That may just have been the best $20 I've ever spent since he still carries those fish everywhere he goes.

I guess I'm just a cheapskate, but I thought the Seven Canyons was a lot more fun than the aquarium and the price was right too!
