Things to do around DSM for 10 y.o. boy?

My 10 year old nephew is staying with us until Sunday, and I have no ideas on what to do or where to take him so he doesn't get too bored.  Does anyone have any ideas on things to do or see around DSM that a kid his age might like?

Thanks!

  • All Play downtown :) Close to Wells Fargo Arena!
  • the des moines arts festival is downtown, and fun if he likes to make stuff!  otherwise, All Play downtown (games) or Climb Iowa if he likes being active!

  • A Cubs game or Barnstormers game?

  • If he likes animals or dinosaurs, I would take him to the zoo.  Also, Incredible Pizza would be fun for an afternoon or evening (pizza plus games, go karts, etc.).  I like the I-Cubs or Barnstormers suggestions, too!

  • The Science Center if it rains (fingers crossed it doesn't!)

  • Maybe ice skating at one of the indoor ice arenas or bowling in addition to everything else that has been mentioned?  There is also the botanical center but it may not hold the attention of a 10 year old.  I bet the Science Center would be a better indoor backup plan.
