5 Children Friendly Vacation Spots
Traveling with your children can be a difficult
thing to plan. When searching for the perfect vacation spot
for your family there are a number of factors to take into
consideration. Finding a family-friendly vacation destination
can be the difference between a fabulous vacation for everyone
to remember and a complete disaster.
1. The top family vacation destination in the world
has long been located in central Florida. Walt Disney
World is filled
with fun for everyone from toddlers to grandparents. Staying
in a Disney Resort gives you and your family a chance to
feel as if you are in another world during your stay. Walt
Disney World offers your family a chance to have breakfast
with Mary Poppins or lunch with Cinderella. Watch the faces
of your children light up as they meet Mickey Mouse for the
first time or experience their excitement as they enjoy their
favorite ride in the theme park. Walt Disney World in Florida
offers guests four theme parks (the Magic Kingdom, Epcot
Center, MGM Studios, and Animal Kingdom) and two water parks
(Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon) that are open year-round.
The Walt Disney World Resort also offers a host of other
activities such as Pleasure Island for adults, shopping at
Downtown Disney, and a multitude of restaurants and cafes.
2. If you are looking for a tropical family vacation, look
no further than the Atlantis Resort located on Paradise Island
in the Bahamas. The resort offers a wide variety of attractions
to keep everyone in the family having fun. The resort features
eleven pools and a number of water slides and rides from
kiddie pools to the Mayan Drop which plunges riders down
a six-story slide into the water. The resort offers golfing,
snorkeling, sailing excursions and other outdoor activities
that allow you to enjoy the beautiful tropical landscape
that surrounds the resort. Children under twelve years of
age can visit the Discovery Channel Camp, which includes
lessons about indigenous sea life, arts and crafts, aquarium
visits, and guided expeditions. It is guaranteed to be a
favorite of any child visiting the resort. For older guests
the resort is home to a full casino, shopping, a comedy club
and two dance clubs. Everyone is sure to find something to
do at Atlantis.
3. If your family enjoys snowy slopes rather than sandy
beaches, then be sure to plan a visit to Snowbird
Resort in Snowbird, Utah. Children under twelve years of age ski
free at Snowbird but the amenities do not stop at the slopes.
Families can enjoy a range of activities in the winter months
such as snowshoeing, snowboarding, luging, snowmobiling,
ice skating and snow tubing. The resort offers live music
concerts year-round and also hosts a number of competitive
skiing competitions and races. Ski schools and camps are
offered for children and child care services are offered
for children under twelve. For adults, the resort offers
a spa and fitness club.
4. For the adventurous family, the Treesort
in Takilma, Oregon is the perfect family vacation destination. The Treesort
offers a Swiss Family Robinson type of vacation high above
the ground in the trees. The resort offers 18 different tree
houses for your family to discover. The resort also includes
swinging bridges, wooden swings, forts and platforms for
climbing and fun. The highlight of the resort for many is
the rope course that includes a 160 foot long zip-line. Families
can enjoy the fresh water swimming pool, one of few attractions
located on the ground, and the campsite area as well.
5. For a vacation that offers both activities and educational
value, families may want to consider visiting Williamsburg,
Virginia. The Kingsmill Resort offers family vacation packages
that can be put together to suit any family. The resort offers
both golf and tennis courses, as well as a marina. At the
resort’s Kids Camp children will enjoy activities like swimming
and yoga, as well as time in the resort’s game room. The
resort is located within driving distance to both Busch Gardens
theme park and historic Colonial Williamsburg. The resort
is also located close to both Richmond and Norfolk, Virginia.
The city of Williamsburg and the Kingsmill Resort offer a
family vacation full of relaxation, activity, excitement
and education.
