Discover the Southwest With Kids: A Family Guide

Rating:
Summary: Combine fun and learning in the same trip
Review: This useful guide will help you make the most of your trip. It not only explains the significance of each site but also tells the practicalities to minimize frustration and maximize the benefits of the visit. There is a useful bibliography of kids book that are great to supplement the visit. We found most of the books at park and museum gift shops. What a pleasure to visit a park and then have your child anxiously read more about what they have seen and explain something to you! What a change to have your car full of books rather than cheap plastic souvenirs. We stopped at Wal Mart and bought a "milk" crate for them all. We were doubtful when we started on this trip, as it certainly was a digression from Disneyland, but the kids loved learning and the book helped us enhance that.
