About Me & My Family

Three little girls run amuck in this house, so there are days when we just HAVE to get out and get going somewhere. We love zoos, parks, beaches, and traveling around to visit friends and family. We enjoy finding awesome deals for places that are kid friendly. Taking our three girls with us as we travel around the country is by far our most favorite thing to do.

Favorite Vacation Memory
After a long day of sledding and climbing through the hills in Lake Tahoe, our family sat in front of the fireplace in our hotel and roasted marshmallows. The soft glow on my girl's faces, mixed with their hazy, tired eyes made the warmth of the fire mean so much more.
Worst Travel Moment With My Kids:
Not realizing how crowded the city bus would be with my girls in San Francisco!! We had to make 4 connections and fold and collapse the stroller at each stop. It was back-breaking, frustrating and a LONG DAY!

Free Kid-Friendly Museums Across the US

Many museums offer free days throughout the year, but these kid-friendly museums are free year-round!  Enjoy!

"Hands on Science Fun"
The Science Center is SO FUN!! I can't believe we've never been here and that it is FREE!!!  (Well, $10 parking, but that is typical for most places plus admission costs!)

The museum is three levels: my girls (7,5,2) loved the second level on life & ecosystems the most.  My girls loved exploring the hands-on activities.  Although most of the exhibits are written with school aged kids in mind, there are discovery areas (sectioned off for safety) for kids 0-7 that was a hit!!  

The staff was esecially friendly and talked with my kids, showed them how the exhibits worked and answered any questions they had.  

We ate at the McDonalds on the 1st level (there is also a Taco Bell, Pizza place & Garden Cafe) and enjoyed a great picnic near the Rose Garden outside in beautiful Exposition Park.  

We will definitely return!!!  We spent about 4 hours inside and didn't get anywhere near to exploring everything in the museum.
