Family Attractions for Your Next Family Vacation
When planning your family vacation, you'll definitely want to incorporate family attractions. Whether it's museums or theme parks, water parks or zoos, there are so many places to visit with kids.
Even as my kids have gotten older, they've enjoyed visiting theme parks. In fact, I think they may enjoy it even more, because they love rides. While we are a big Walt Disney World family, my kids have also enjoyed visiting other theme parks across the United States.
