Looking for family-friendly activity that you can do within the four walls of homeCreating bucket list of future family vacations not only provides a fun, collaborative project for mom, dad and the kiddos – it offers a bit of daydreaming about sandy beaches, Mickey Mouse and better days ahead.

Orlando, FL 

Orlando is renowned for its theme parks - and rightfully so. But, in addition to the rides and characters, make sure to take the easy hour-long drive to spend a day on one of the beaches outside of Orlando, such as Cocoa Beach or Daytona Beach. Or take a step off the beaten path for the natural wonders of Florida’s Springs. For the more daring amongst you, zipline over gators at Gatorland. To sweeten up your trip, make sure to treat the family to a day at the Chocolate Museum. There is no shortage of food and culture to experience in Orlando, making it a location that you can’t go wrong with!

New York City, NY 

Immerse your family in arts and culture with a trip to the Big Apple. Pick up same-day discounted tickets to a Broadway show, or take the subway to one of the many incredible family-friendly museums, such as the Science Museum. Central Park and the Central Park Zoo are fun, but if you want to do something unique, take your family on a magical journey to see what it takes to put on a Broadway show. Times Square, the Statue of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge, and many more places are top sightseeing destinations in the city. But for a sweet bit of culture, pop over to Serendipity 3 for some frozen hot chocolate. Or take a pizza tour of the city to get a slice of the real NYC. End your day with a photo-worthy spin on the rink at Rockefeller Center.
