Here are some things to do with a baby in Phoenix and how Tushbaby can make your trip go smoother.

Fun Things To Do With a Baby in Phoenix

Children’s Museum of Phoenix

Beat the Phoenix heat at the Children’s Museum of Phoenix. With baby zones and designated areas for children three years and younger, the Children’s Museum of Phoenix is great for kids of all ages, even your littlest ones. As you go from baby zone to baby zone, there will likely be a healthy mix of carrying your baby and putting them down to play, so you’ll want a baby carrier with an open-style design—especially if you have a baby who wants up one minute and down the next.

Tushbaby is an open-style hip seat carrier that wraps high and tight above the waist, and features a plush seat for baby to sit while you support them with one arm. This means you can carry them with support when they want to be carried, and once you arrive at a baby zone, just put ‘em down—it’s that simple. Baby starting to cry? Pick them back up and soothe them in the face-to-face position. Figure out baby is hungry? Find a place to sit and lay your baby across the seat to feed them with support. Just like you, the Tushbaby does it all.

Old Town Scottsdale

From arts to events and fun places to eat, Old Town Scottsdale is a popular stop for most visitors. Arrive with no agenda and start strolling with your baby. Some days may be more crowded than others, so keeping your baby close with a carrier can provide you both a sense of security while promoting bonding time. With four carry positions and built-in lumbar support, Tushbaby helps you babywear longer and more comfortably with children 0-3 years old, or up to 45lbs. Tushbaby’s open design makes it easy to change up the scenery and let your little one choose how they want to be carried, while you keep a hand free to shop, eat, or care for baby in Old Town Scottsdale.

As you stroll Old Town Scottsdale, you’ll want your personal items nearby, too. The Pack keeps everything close while helping you get your steps in and step out in style. With a hideable bottle holder and spacious compartments, this chic belt bag offers more than just convenience on the go. Strap it around your chest, back, or waist to complement your casualwear or elevate athleisure. Between the Tushbaby and The Pack, you can have everything you need within arms reach.

Butterfly Wonderland

Watch your baby’s fascination with beautiful butterflies grow as you explore the largest butterfly conservatory in the country. With Tushbaby, you can comfortably carry your little one through the vivid tropical paradise, ensuring they're in the perfect position to witness the magic up close without straining your arms or back. Tushbaby's open style and versatile carrying positions encourage bonding by keeping your baby close and engaged as you explore together. Plus, Tushbaby’s five storage pockets keep all your essentials—snacks, diapers, and wipes—handy, so you’re well-prepared to make the most of your visit without needing a bulky diaper bag.

Time to share your baby’s love? Tushbaby is easy to adjust and share between family members of all shapes and sizes! If you need more room around the waistband, you can purchase the Waistband Extender separately for an additional 23” in length.

Splash Pad at Tempe Marketplace

The Tempe Marketplace has everything, from an escape room and axe throwing to shopping and a splash pad. Soak up the Arizona sun as you explore the Tempe Marketplace and cool down on the splash pad with your baby. Pack your essentials—sunscreen, snacks, sunglasses, and more—in The Pack for easy carrying and access while your little one runs around getting wet.

After water time, you can dry baby off and strap on your Tushbaby to take a stroll around the rest of the marketplace. Dress your baby up or down, they’ll still fit perfectly on the hip seat, and for the hot days, the open design allows some air between you and your baby. At Tushbaby, we’re all about functionality and understanding life with a baby. We’ve designed our products to deliver the convenience and support you need, for every adventure or moment.

Visualizing your next trip to Phoenix already? We are, too. When naptime hits or your hands get overloaded, you can pair The Snug attachment wrap with Tushbaby for hands-free babywearing. The Snug conveniently folds to fit in the under-seat storage pocket of Tushbaby, so you can keep it close at all times. Simply attach The Snug to your Tushbaby, place your baby on the seat, wrap the straps over your shoulders to form an X across your back, then buckle up to keep them close. The Tushbaby and Snug create the ultimate 2-in-1 convertible carrier combo, so you don’t have to lug more than one carrier or choose a carrier for your next trip. Just choose Tushbaby.
