9 Unforgettable Washington Day Trips You Can Take the Kids to This Summer
No matter, their age, these darn kids grow up so fast, so don't let the summer fly by without taking your children somewhere fun and easy. Sure, you could leave the state and take a crowded flight to Anywhere, USA, or you could stay here in Washington and not be too far away from home!
I've got nine easy day-trip ideas that will be unforgettable and fun, for both you and the children! All you'll need is a car, some gas in the tank, possibly a few reservations, and a positive attitude.
My Tip to Help You Decide the Best Kid-friendly Day Trips in Washington State for Your Family
Since not everyone in the family will have the same idea for where to go on vacation or a day trip, why not make choosing where to go a fun thing?
Avoid hearing a bunch of whining and complaining by asking everyone in your family where they would like to do without leaving Washington State or what types of activities they want to do for a day.
Next, write down each of these categories on a slip of paper, put them in a hat, and pick a family member to pull the day trip out of the hat. That way, *they* will be to blame if the trip goes sour. (I kid, I kid!)
