Don’t you just love family vacations?! The opportunity to get away and explore someplace new!

And we’ve still got lots more to cover! This post will highlight the letters K – 0 as we discuss learning, new places & outdoor fun.
My family will tell you that I love to plan for visiting new places (they’ll actually say I spend more time planning than I do visiting ;). What can I say, I like to be prepared. So, I thought I would put together a guide for those of you getting ready to visit SEA LIFE Aquarium in Kansas City.
Take a look at some of these FAQs (frequently asked questions) and tips before your visit!
Do your kids love those brightly colored bricks? They will LOVE a visit to Legoland Discovery Center in Kansas City! And it’s not just about building – there are rides, a 4D movie, master builder class and lots of room to create, build and explore!
Heading to the beach this summer? Or maybe you’re planning a camp-out? We’ve got some great reads for you to take along – explore a picture book, bring a chapter book to read aloud or grab a guide book for ideas on games and activities!
Do you have plans to visit a national park or national monument this year? If so, don’t overlook the Junior Ranger programs offered at more than 100 of these locations! Kids can learn about nature, history, science — and earn some very cool badges!
