Have toddler, will travel: Here’s where to beat cabin fever with small fry - Boston Globe
When it comes to travel, toddlers are a trip. They run, they grab, they try to lick the dinosaur at the Museum of Science. They log more miles per day than a Fitbit fanatic. That crazy energy and wild curiosity is also what makes them so much fun.
As every parent knows, entertaining these tiny humans is a breeze in summertime. Find ’em a playground or a beach and they’ll be happily engaged. (One of our kids spent an entire day digging a sandy grave for a crab carcass at Crane Beach). But being stuck inside for days with a toddler when it isn’t beach season — that’s no day at the beach. There’s only so much Play-Doh creation and Duplo construction one can tolerate. And all that cupcake baking is fun, but ultimately too carbohydrate-heavy. Consider these fun, out-of-Boston escapes when you and your little folk have gotta get out of the house already.
