Summary: Great ideas for adventures near and far
Comment: I was excited to get this book a year ago and spent many delighted hours thumbing through it. We've gone to probably just shy of 25 of the places listed (all in the U.S). The kids have had the best time. There is a geographical index in the back that list the places by state or country location which is helpful. We've grouped together several listed activities into one trip. If you have an adventurous spirit, I think you'll love this book. This isn't the only travel book you'll ever need,either. While there is some very basic information on where to fly into and where to stay, it isn't enough to get by on. I think this book should be thought of more as an idea book rather than a travel guide.

Summary: A great travel guide!
Comment: We love to travel. We travelled alot before having our babies. We would like to continue travelling. I thought this book would be interesting. It is! It definately gives you some good ideas on where to take the kids. I would definately recommend this book to anyone with kids.

Summary: I find nothing wrong with this book
Comment: I put off the purchase of the book based on the other reviews. I purchased a fodors family travel book instead. I hated that book so I decided to go back with my gut instinct and purchased this one. I gave it five stars because I thought the other reviews were harsh and unjust. I don't feel the sections need to be in any particular order. Start at page one and read. Mark or just take note of the destinations that interest you. I don't think the destinations are unrealistic. If disney or a caribbean cruise is your idea of the ultimate family vacation then this is not the book for you. I don't say this offend anyone it is just that you may need to consider a different book for your needs. I do plan to take my kids to Asia, Africa, South America and so forth. You need not be wealthy to do so.

Summary: 500 Places to take your GROWN kids
Comment: While I certainly appreciate how much research went into this book, there are so many places that are really not for kids...but older kids. Many of these places I am just now ready to see..and I'm a grandma.
I was just going on a trip with 3 of my grandkids but couldn't use any of this for this trip. We were going on the east coast and many of the places mentioned in this book were either out west or in other parts of the world.
I could think of many places that would be more fun for children than the ones mentioned here.
