A Visit to Disney World®- Going to Disney World® can be quite a bit of work. However, the right planning can make your vacation less hectic and much more memorable. Here are some quick tips to get you started in the right direction.
A Visit to the Little League Baseball Museum- There's always excitement in the air when a field of dreams is filled with sounds of baseball. The crisp crack of the bat sends a crowd into excited ecstasy, and the cheering crowd stands in anticipation of runners reaching home base. There's nothing quite like a Little League game to stir the emotions.
An Unforgettable Vacation: Visit a Farm- As you are planning your next vacation do you get sticker shock from the cost of accommodations, airfare and meals? Are you tired of the usual resort or theme-park destinations where you are passively entertained (and constantly opening your wallet)? Are you searching for a vacation that will be relaxing for you and an unforgettable experience for the kids? Do you want to be at a place that is real and not manufactured?
Children's Museums: A Hands on Learning Adventure- Once you've plucked an apple
from its tree, there's no putting it
back on. Or is there? Like
hundreds of other youngsters that
will pass through children's
museums daily, 2-year-old
Dominic discovered that almost
anything is possible. From Velcro
trees, to make shift recycling
centers, complete with magnetic
cranes for separating aluminum
from tin, there are learning
opportunities around every corner.
Cruising the Carribean With Kids- As spring and summer heat up, juggling work demands and family life can get a little tricky. With the kids out of school, a Royal Caribbean International family cruise offers
the perfect summer survival solution, promising activities, relaxation, cultural enrichment and prices that won't burn a hole in your budget.
Kidding Around San Antonio- Perhaps it's because in my youth our choices were slim. Or maybe it's simply more fun to be a kid in this day and age. Whatever the reason, it seems there's a growing emphasis on family and kid-oriented activities today.
Make a Splash in Wisconsin Dells!- Who says you have to wait for hot summer days to enjoy the thrill of soaring down an exciting water slide! Well, that's certainly not the case in Wisconsin Dells, located in the southern end of America's dairy state.
San Diego For Families- If your family travels include the southern California coastline this vacation season, you won't want to miss sunny San Diego! Aside from its white sandy beaches, historic Old Town, and Fisherman's Wharf, San Diego is packed with fun destinations such as LegoLand, SeaWorld, the world famous San Diego Zoo, and the Wild Animal Park. There is definitely something for everyone here.
Sesame Place: A Great Family Trip- He's red, cute, cuddly and furry and although he is a monster, he has managed to capture your little one's heart. Yes, many of us have children who are in love with Elmo! And since he lives on Sesame Street, an educational program that many of us also grew up with, it's hard not to love him back. As I watched my children laugh and clap at their first live performance of Sesame Street Live, I knew where we needed to go for their first theme park experience - Sesame Place.
Visiting Chicago: Fun Things To Do With Your Kids- Nowhere other than Chicago can visitors experience more than 45 museums, attend major league sports events, dine at restaurants of every cuisine, enjoy theater performances and see a panoramic view from the Western Hemisphere's tallest building. The Chicago Office of Tourism is pleased to assist families planning their summer vacations with family activities that engage and delight all ages.
Welcome To The Jungle: The Rainforest Cafe- Combining good food with entertainment and education
is a winning mix for the chain of themed restaurants.
Every 18 minutes the entire establishment experiences
a "thunderstorm." Every 12 minutes an audio-animatronic
display of wild animals "comes to life" before the wide-eyed
stares of children who have run from all over the place to
ogle them.
