Shopping
Find your way into the CORE shopping centre - and explore the +15 system in downtown Calgary. The +15 system links most of the downtown buildings through a series of pedways 15 feet above ground level (on the second floor). On a cold or rainy weekday this will give you great access to shopping and restaurants.

Awesome military museum with tons of exhibits and friendly and knowledgeable volunteers. It covers Canada's army, naval, and air force history for the past couple hundred years with lots of dioramas, models, videos, uniforms, medals, and equipment. We took my two 8-year old nephews on a rainy day and they loved seeing all the real-life tanks, torpedoes, and planes. They have a huge amount if information displayed very nicely and interactively - and don't forget to check out the working submarine periscope! The entry price is very reasonable - a great activity for everyone.
