Best Shopping in Nashville for Kids & Families

Looking for the best shopping in Nashville for kids? As Music City with a surprisingly deep family scene, Nashville offers kid-friendly stores, markets, and shopping districts that families won't find anywhere else. Whether you're visiting for the first time or looking for something new, we've rated every option for age-appropriateness, stroller access, and value so you can skip the guesswork.

Shopping with kids is a different sport than shopping without them. The best family shopping spots have play areas, food courts, and stores that actually interest kids. We note which malls have nursing rooms and family restrooms. In Nashville, expect hot humid summers, mild falls — spring and fall are ideal for families. Pro tip: Downtown Broadway is adult-oriented at night. Stick to daytime visits and explore the family-friendly neighborhoods instead.
