[quote=Anonymous]A lot has to do with your travel radius and if you have a car. Your best bet would be to search the "Tried and tested great things to do with kids in Israel" Facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/kidsdaysoutisrael/

If you do a search, search for words like "Tel Aviv" or "Herzliya" (with various other spellings). If you have a car, you can check neighboring cities like Ramat Gan (with the safari) and Ra'anana (with Park Ra'anana). There's a small playground at Gordon Beach in Tel Aviv. Also with a car, Caesaria is great for kids because they can run around and it's great for adults because it looks amazing (but don't think too hard about what would actually happen there). The Bahai'i Gardens in Haifa are beautiful, but they don't allow food in the gardens and everyone has to stay on the path. Unless your 2-year-old is amazingly well-behaved, it's not doable for much time. The gardens are also not particularly stroller-friendly. If you do bring your child, just across the road from the top of the Gardens is the Louis Promenade, and if you go up the stairs, you'll find a fabulous playground with amazing views of Haifa and the Mediterranean. There's also loads to do in Jerusalem, especially the Western Wall, the Israel Museum, and amazing playgrounds. If you have membership to a science museum with ASTC reciprocity (like the Maryland Science Center), you will be able to get into Bloomfield Science Museum in Jerusalem, MadaTech in Haifa, Carasso in Be'er Sheva, and Clore (Weizman Institute) in Rechovot for free. I think that Bloomfield is the best of the bunch at 2 years old, but I wouldn't recommend making a special trip; all the major science museums within a 200-mile radius of DC are more updated and larger than Bloomfield.

I hope this helps! Enjoy your trip![/quote]
