Bay Area Recomendations

We have gone to some amazing kid places this summer:

1. Gilroy Gardens in Gilroy- an amusement park for little kids - if your kids love rides then they will love this place. The drawbacks are that its huge, expensive, you can't bring in food and you need a whole day to get your $ worth. 

2. Vasona Park in Los Gatos - huge park with a lake, train ride, carousel, many playgrounds - fantastic

3. Happy Hollow in San Jose - rides, petting zoo, zoo, playgrounds - everything in one - its great b/c the membership is so reasonable, you can bring in your own food and its not too big so you can go for a few hours and the kids are happy.

4. Pier 39 in SF - seals, food, carousel, street performers - my kids love going there.

5. Coyote Point County Park in San Mateo- zoo, indoor museum, huge park, ocean - you can bring in food from home.

6. Santa Cruz/Capitola - beach, food, sun, fun 

7. Children's Discovery Museum in San Jose - indoor museum with water area, bubbles, science, infant room etc

8. Bay Area Discovery Museum in Saulsalito - both indoor museum (art room, tech room, infant room etc) and outdoor fun (water area, playground, sand)

There are so many more things for kids to do but this is some of the fun my kids had this summer - lucky kids!
