Description

Hit the road with the whole family using this inspiring and practical guide to the best sites, bites, and fun across all 50 states and Canada.

Highlighting the best parks, zoos, museums, and kid-friendly activities from Alaska to Washington, D.C., there is something for everyone in this sequel to the best-selling 50 States, 5,000 Ideas.

Visit the San Diego Zoo in California, see the skeletons at the Museum of Osteology in Oklahoma, go on a grizzly bear safari in Alaska, roam through ice castles in Quebec, and marvel at a whale shark at the Georgia Aquarium. All of these ideas, and thousands more, are waiting in 50 States, 5,000 Family Adventures--the ultimate guidebook for families looking to explore more of the United States and Canada.

Whether seeking a new adventure in your own backyard or looking to take a road trip to a new destination, each entry in this practical guide includes when to go, where to go, what to see, and what to do. Plus, fascinating facts about each state will help beat backseat boredom. You'll also find expert itineraries in every state and province and need-to-know information like where to stay, what to pack, and what ages are appropriate for each activity.

Ideas through all 50 states and 10 Canadian provinces include:
  • A tubing adventure on Lake Travis in Austin, Texas
  • Winter fun in Park City, Utah, including a snowshoe "hike" to s'mores.
  • The ultimate guide to the best kid-friendly Smithsonian museums in Washington, D.C.
  • A glass-bottom boat tour of Florida's reefs and underwater wildlife in Biscayne National Park
  • Gator-spotting on an airboat tour in New Orleans, Louisiana
  • Hunting for "treasure" along Oregon's coastal tidepools
  • Walking through lava tubes in Hawaii's Volcanoes National Park
  • A kid-friendly rafting trip where you'll spot whales and otters in Vancouver, Canada

...and so much more! All that's left to do is hit the road to make family memories that will last a lifetime.
