Dr. K's Spring Break Tips

I wanted to write this post earlier in the week, but since I have been having so much fun during Spring Break, it didn't happen until today.

1. Order your tickets in advance for whatever activity you choose.  Some locations give you a discount, but more importantly, you save time standing in line.  At two different locations, we waited in line for about 30 minutes.  Everyone else without pre-purchased tickets stood in line anywhere from an hour to five hours.
2. Pack snacks, including drinks. Small snacks that fit inside a purse work best.
3. Check Groupon or other online discount locations.  I used Groupon for the first time to go ice skating. Cheap and fun!
4. Choose one town or area and do everything you can in that area for the day.
5. Let the children have a voice in what you do.  I created a list of ideas and then let my niece & nephew choose the places.  Once they did that, we worked together to create our entire schedule.
6. Plan your day carefully so that you are not in heavy traffic areas at peak traffic times.
7. HAVE FUN!!

What tips do you have to add?
