subject: Vacation Spots For Families [print this page] Have you ever gone somewhere far away from home with your families for a trip on summer or winter vacations. Going to a outside place not only can have a good time with your relatives, and relax ourselves, but also can learn the different culture in different place and open our eyes.
Planning a vacation when a child is involved is a completely different experience and can be difficult if you don't know where to look or how to go about finding information. The best thing to do is go online and search for family friendly vacation spots. This search will produce a large list of sites that have information regarding vacation spots that are perfect for families.
Once you have picked out a few places, if you have time, it's a good idea to request information about the area if you've never been there before. You can do this through the chamber of commerce. Most times this information can be requested online, but a few require a phone call.
If you don't have the time to wait for the brochures, here are a few places we've visited that are family friendly.
1. Mt Rushmore is a wonderful place to take the family. There is so much to do and see that it would take a week or two for you to do it all. There's Mt Rushmore itself, Crazy Horse, numerous underground caves, trails, Harney Peak, the 1880 train, and much more. Not only will your family have a great time visiting this wonderful part of South Dakota, but they'll also learn a lot in the process.
2. Salt Lake City Utah is another place that's perfect for the family. This is the general area where the 2002 Winter Olympics were held and that area is fantastic. You'll be able to see the Great Salt Lake, the area where they held the skiing, snowboarding, bobsledding, and other outside events, and you'll also be able to see the building where they did the skating events. Salt Lake City is full of interesting things to do and see and once again you'll learn a lot along the way.
3. Yellowstone National Park is a great place to take your children. You'll be able to camp, have camp fires, fish, look for wildlife, see Old Faithful, and view a wonderful place. Yellowstone National Park was the first national park and it's full of history and great things to learn and see.
