There are so many things to do with preschoolers in C onnecticut. This age has always been my favorite. Every new thing they try is a brand-new,eye-opening moment. And Connecticut has so many cool experiences for them to sink their little fingers into. Moms are looking for hands-on museums where their toddlers are allowed to touch or places where kids can stretch their little muscles to gain confidence. And kids love those places where the animals they read about really come to life. Connecticut has it all for families with toddlers and preschoolers!

With a world-class city at our doorstep, there are so many things to do with preschoolers in Boston. And that's saying a lot. Preschoolers can be a finicky bunch. Maybe that's partly because they are straddling the fine line between little kid and big kid status: too old for some things, but too young for many others. 

Fortunately, from museums in the Fenway to outdoor activities on Boston's waterfront (not to mention tons of free stuff), Boston is filled with family fun that'll have your 3 to 5-year old jumping for joy. Here are 25 wonderful ways to enjoy Boston with a preschooler.

A trip to Splashway Waterpark is meant for those Houston weekends when it's so hot that you aren’t 100% sure if you’re still wet from your shower or if you’re already sweating again. That usually means it’s time to eat indoors, pivot from regular coffee to iced coffee, and let your kids spend lots of time in swimming pools or yard sprinklers.

But if your kids want to take swimming to a different level, or if they’re (like mine) looking for a little thrill in their lives, it's time to consider adventuring to a waterpark.  

We decided to try a new-to-us waterpark this summer, and after researching options, planned a day trip to Splashway Waterpark and Campground in Sheridan, Texas. It’s about an hour and a half drive from Houston, but upon arriving we quickly realized it was well worth the drive.

I think your family will too, but before changing into your swimsuits, read on to learn what to expect and how to maximize your visit. Also, don’t forget your goggles, and don't forget to check out our Houston Water Parks and Theme Parks Guide for more theme park adventures.

Looking for the best things to do in DC with babies? Here are some great options for family fun with little ones under age 1.

There's nothing quite like seeing the world through your baby's eyes. After all, taking in new sights, sounds, scents, and textures creates a sense of wonder in infants and builds their knowledge of the world around them. And when baby is fussy, sometimes just getting out of the house is all they need.

Luckily, the DC area is full of interesting places to explore with babies, from outdoor playgrounds and gardens to indoor attractions like museums and libraries. And the best part? Almost all of these places are free for babies under 1 (and many for grown-ups, too).

So load up the diaper bag, pull out the stroller, and try these 21 things to do with DC babies before they turn 1. Then check out our Baby and Maternity Guide for more great baby advice, from how to get free baby stuff to the best first birthday gifts.

If you're looking for things to do in Chicago with little kids, this is the list for you. While there are thousands of tourist attractions and cultural experiences in Chicago (and about 100 of them that you should do with kids before they grow up!) not all of them are great for kids under 5 years old. So, after creating a list of things you should do with Chicagoland babies before they turn one, we set about making the ultimate list of 25 things to do in Chicago before your little one turns 5. From zoos to gardens to museums, much of this list is especially great for preschoolers and kids about to enter kindergarten. 

A few of our selections are well-known favorites with specific attractions for preschoolers, while other ideas are more off the beaten path, but all are things we've enjoyed doing with tots before they turn 5!
