Question

What attractions are there for an 11 and 8 year old in San Antonio Texas in off season holidays (in February)?

Answer 1

There's actually quite a bit to do.  You don't mention the s*x but it probably doesn't matter.

Sea World may actually still be open.  I know they've been taking a run at keeping it open almost year round.  The riverwalk is beautiful and you can take a great ride on the boats.  There's also the Rainforest Cafe which is really neat if you don't have one near where you live.  Market Square is as close as you will get to Mexico without actually going there.  

One of my favorite places is the Institute of Texas Cultures.  Full of interesting stuff and is right by the Hemisfair towers.

We have a fabulous zoo and park and there's a great miniature train which is a must if you're going to the zoo.  

The whitte museum is also by the zoo and they always have some very interesting exhibits and there's the HEB Science treehouse there as well which is very hands on.  Also the Children's museum is downtown as well.  Ripley's believe it or not and the was museum is downtown and has some kind of cool things in it and of course there's the ALAMO!!!  you can't leave without seeing it.

I hope this helps!!

Answer 2

if you come down if February, thats when the rodeo is so you may want to take them to it.  Its been voted the 2nd best rodeo in the country and i find it very fun.  Sea World is very nice, offering small rides for kids and the famous shamu.  There is alot of shopping to do, and also you can go to Brackenridge Park and the Witte Museum.  Downtown is the alamo to visit.  You can also hit up the missions.  I hope you enjoy!

And don't forget all the caves and stuff nearby.  There's wonderworld in San Marcos that is just great!
