[quote=Anonymous]Do YOU want to go to Colonial Williamsburg?  If the adults are interested, then buy tickets and take the kids along.  Children under 6 are free.  Like previous posters said, the 4-year-old will enjoy the maze and some of the trade shops.

However, if you are going for the sake of your kids, maybe hold off on buying tickets until they are a bit older.  You can probably fill half a day with free activities around town.  Kids will enjoy the animals and seeing people in costume.  Sometimes they have children's games or military demonstrations on the green.  There is usually an afternoon parade.

Or take the money you would have spent on tickets and invest it in something more kid-friendly.  Maybe do a carriage ride.  Rent a colonial costume for the 4-year-old.  Take them to the gift shop and buy colonial toys or a tricorn hat.  Visit the bakery or Wythe Candy Shop in Merchant Square.

As for where to stay, we had good luck with an AirB&B.  Much cheaper than the hotels.[/quote]
