One Day Visit to Universal Studios & Islands of Adventure with Kids

We spent one day at Universal Studios & Islands of Adventure in Orlando with the sole intent of doing The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. When that took far less time than anticipated I persuaded my Big Little (7) to take a loop around both Universal Orlando parks to find some other fun. I was […]

Spend the Night at Zoo Atlanta

As we travel we like to look for experiences that indulge our children’s curiosities. Currently, that means animal encounters. Our Easter visit to Atlanta perfectly coincided with one of Zoo Atlanta’s Night Crawler family programs, so we signed up to spend the night at the zoo. Zoo Atlanta’s Night Crawler program accepts children five and […]

The Baths of Sliema, Malta

This is yet another story of me seeing something on Instagram during trip planning, knowing nothing about it and deciding that we had to go visit. The Baths of Sliema in Malta called to me. These pools, carved from the rocks on the coast of the town of Sliema in Malta are still perfect for […]

Family Fun in Pigeon Forge

Everything you need to know for an incredible family friendly vacation in the Great Smoky Mountains. If you’re looking for a family friendly mountain getaway, look no further than Pigeon Forge.

The Blue Lagoon with Kids, Malta

The Blue Lagoon in Malta is one of those places that seems almost too incredible to be real. Crystal clear water, white sand and nothing to be seen for miles. Our high season visit to the Blue Lagoon in Malta lived up to expectations. We avoided the crowds, sunburn and high costs with a few […]

I like to set up a basket filled with resources for our study topic and have it available for the boys to explore during the day. This season we are working […]

An Overnight at the Great Wolf Lodge in LaGrange, GA

One night at the Great Wolf Lodge in LaGrange, GA was plenty for water park fun. We came prepared to be up-sold on experiences and instead devoted ourselves to the water park until we couldn’t swim any more. The kids were none the wiser and can’t wait for another water park overnight! The Great Wolf […]

Dollywood with Little Kids

Everything you need to know for a day (or two) at this world class amusement park nestled in the Smoky Mountains. No visit to the Great Smoky Mountains would be complete without a visit to Dollywood. Dollywood takes the amusement park and makes it feel down right homey. During our day at the park we […]

Tuskegee Airmen National Historic Site, Alabama

This post contains affiliate links. On the dull drive between Montgomery and Atlanta the Tuskegee Airmen National Historic Site stands out as a well curated, family friendly, free stop. You could easily spend several hours here reading all the displays or just pop by for a rest on your drive along I-85. Either way you […]

Just the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios, Florida

The entire focus of our visit to Orlando, Florida was to take our Big Little on a birthday trip to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. He is wrapped into the book world of Harry Potter and was singularly focused on getting a chance to visit just the Harry Potter stuff. I honestly had no […]
