When most people hear the words “spring break”, thoughts of college kids partying on the beach come to mind. But the spring break isn’t just for college students. It’s a great time for family vacations as well.
The spring break isn’t just about going to the beach, either. That is an option, but if the kids’ spring break falls at the same time as the colleges’, the beach will probably be quite crowded and hectic. There are lots of other, less stressful options for families. The following are a few ideas:
Amusement Parks
Spring break is a great time to hit the amusement parks. It’s not as hot as it is in the summer, and it probably won’t be nearly as crowded. Most amusement parks have fun activities for kids of all ages as well as adults, so it will be an experience that the whole family can enjoy.
Some amusement parks have different hours during the spring than in the summer, so be sure to check ahead of time. You might also be able to find coupons that will save you money since it’s not traditionally a busy time of year.
Going Camping
Taking a trip to the wilderness is a fun spring break activity. While it may still be a bit too chilly at night to “rough it” in a tent, you could take a camper or RV. Renting a cabin is also an option in many parks.
Planning activities in advance will help prevent boredom for the kids. It’s also nice to touch base with civilization a time or two during your trip. Going out to eat or to a movie mid-week will provide a nice change of pace.
Historical Destinations
Taking a trip to an historical destination is an educational spring break option. This could entail anything from a day trip to some nearby historical places to a week-long stay in city that is rich with history, such as Washington, D.C.
If you’re planning a long trip, it’s wise to make sure that the place where you’re going has plenty of things to keep your family occupied. If you’re concerned about running out of things to do and see, consider visiting two or three different places. The kids won’t mind if you have to stop by an amusement park along the way.
Cruises
Cruises allow vacationers to visit several destinations on one trip, usually at an affordable price. There are lots of kid-friendly cruise options for families on spring break. Some cruise packages are geared toward families with children in specific age ranges, but there are also lots of cruises that offer something for everyone.
Most ships offer a variety of onboard and excursion activities. Many also offer babysitting for younger children while Mom and Dad participate in adult activities. Some of the newer ships offer family suites.
Spring break is a great time for family vacations. But there’s no rule saying that you have to go to the beach. There are lots of other places that make great spring break destinations for families.
