[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We don't generally take trips specifically FOR the kids and kids alone (as in we haven't gone some place we actively disliked only for the kids). We do all enjoy Disney ;)

I do try to make sure we have a mix of kid and adult activities. We went to Spain last year and spent some long days in museums. But made sure to make time for the kids to play at a playground and get ice cream. I also tend to pick museums that I know will have an exhibit my kids will enjoy (usually some huge art installation). We will go to a nice restaurant, but I make sure there is something my kids will eat.

My kids are 8 and 12 and have always generally gone along with whatever we pick, but I try to make it fun! I think the kid is to just set expectations. I always tell someone that our vacations will have something for everyone and we need to respect that everyone likes different activities. Luckily my kids still like the same things lol. Fingers crossed that my 12 year old continues to be agreeable for a while.

Goodness I can't type. Meant to say the "key is to set expectations" and "i always tell everyone that our vacations..."[/quote]
