Thanks for everyone's suggestions.

I noticed Deerfield Mall is about 5 miles away from the airport. I know that it might not be the best mall, but I wonder if maybe that's our best option in total.


Looks like the Deerbrook Mall is open Noon until 6pm on Jan 1..... but it is a very "ordinary" mall....here's the website so you can see the list of stores

If you are getting a rental car, there are more lively or unique malls within 30-45 mins of IAH..... my thought is that the Deerbrook Mall is not worth the taxi fare to get there, and it will be difficult or a long wait to get a taxi back to IAH.
