Check out SKY ZONE in Ocala near the Paddock Mall. They can enjoy 90 min or two hours easily. Nothing like playing dodgeball while jumping on trampolines!

Also consider a 1 1/2 tour of the LunaSea Alpaca farm which is just north of Clarmont. Full time interaction with the animals and very informative too. It is a fun time for both young and old. The tour may sound corny, but it has been a "must visit" for all our visitors over the years.
LunaSea is a wonderful place. the owners are fine people & you get to kiss a llama if you want to. everytime we go there's teens & young people enjoying themselves. same with Wild Florida drive-thru animal park.
