These are four of our favorite places that we returned to again and again over the years. They were great outings when the children were toddler and preschool age continuing through into their high school years. If you haven't checked these places out, you may enjoy exploring all they have to offer. Many provide special events, classes or activities for children of all stages of development. They also have events or activities that are great for families and nannies.

A favorite place we recently discovered is North Mississippi Regional Park (49th/53rd exit off of 94 in North Mpls). We can't get enough of it ... free outdoor wading pool with a huge rock sprinkler, a fantastic park for both school age and toddlers, wonderful trails by the Mississippi .... pool closes Labor Day, so enjoy it quick!
