Looking for something new with kids.

St. Louis, Dallas and Kansas City would be my recommendations. Especially this time of the year with baseball games.

New Orleans for some good food and history lessons.

DFW We got water parks, Wax museum, Texas Ranger Baseball, Fort Worth Stockyards, Great Wolf Lodge, etc.

Depending on age of kids, St. Louis can be hard to beat.

City Museum is insanely cool if you've never been, specially if the kids are from about 6-13 years old.

The Zoo is free and great.

Grant's Farm is cool.

Cardinals baseball game.

The Arch (while it's cool, it's also a little overrated, imo).

Six Flags

Lots of different places to eat.

I just spent 2 days in St Louis and had a great time   Stayed at the Drury Inn by the Arch    good free breakfast and small buffet at night  but you get 3 free drinks and if you have kids I think you can use theirs also.  Again 3 free drinks And a casino right down the street   less than $10 cab ride including tip   Oh yea they also have this tall thing that you can go to the top of it and look at the river   But 3 free drinks and a casino

grab the tent and fill the coolers.  Blanchard Springs is always a nice three day weekend.  I loved going as a child.

Drury is a very nice and old hotel, that has very good breakfast buffets.  Save $$ with kids. Indoor parking and close to interstate. Walking distance to ballpark and some nice restaurants downtown. Got that indoor swimming pool going on there.

Eudora is nice this time of year.

The burnt Jet fuel over Kandahar adds a nice ambiance this time of year.

Where do you live? Are you wanting driving distance?
