Fun Places To Go



From Teresa Plowright, your Guide to Family Vacations
I'm preparing this newsletter on Star Wars Day (who knew?) which reminds me that Star Wars Weekends will be starting soon at Disney World. And this year, there'll be a new star (pun intended) attraction...

Star Wars Weekends at Disney World
Star Wars Weekends happen on four weekends in May and June at Disney's Hollywood Studios theme park, with special events such as parades, motorcades, and character appearances, plus the chance to duel with Darth at the Jedi Training Academy. Naturally, the fun is concentrated at the popular Star Tours attraction. Star Tours has been closed for months for a major re-creation, and now a new 3-D Star Tours will debut on, you guessed it, the first day of the Star Wars Weekends, May 20th.

Family-Friendly Hotels in New York City
New York City is a terrific place to visit with kids, with wonderful museums and attractions, and only-in-New-York things to do such as Scott's Pizza Tour. Plan in advance and set up a "greet" with Big Apple Greeter: friendly New Yorkers volunteer to show visitors around the town they love. Read about this and more Top Things to Do in NYC with kids, and also check out some family-friendly places to stay, at the link above.

Kids Free at All Inclusive Resorts
Families love their all inclusive beach resorts in the Caribbean and Mexico, and every year they can expect good deals for the summer season. Check out a handy collection of "Kids Stay, Play and Eat Free" deals at Vacationkids.com, for dozens of resorts where kids stay free, which of course -- at an all inclusive resort -- means free meals and free activities as well.
