Got kids? Well, load ’em up—Wisconsin has plenty to offer kids of all ages.
Days 1–2
Boisterous and wet revelry is in Wisconsin Dells. Soak yourself in the country’s most amazing lineup of gargantuan water parks or on a tour of the gorgeous river scenery.
Day 3
Drive east to Milwaukee and let the kids go wild at the Discovery World at Pier Wisconsin.
Day 4
In Oshkosh, let the kids ogle the unbelievable EAA Air Adventure Museum displays and let ’em try their escape skills at A.K.A. Houdini in Appleton.
Day 5
Door County has plenty for kids to do: petting zoos, trail rides, beach dune climbing, hay rides, fruit picking, swimming, boating, biking, and more.
Day 6
Adults adore Lambeau Field, home of the Green Bay Packers, and kids can emulate the Packer greats in its interactive zone. Downtown Green Bay also has one of the quaintest anachronisms in the state, the Bay Beach Amusement Park.
Day 7
Kids scream as you raft the Wolf River; later, let ’em frolic in one of Marinette County’s numerous waterfalls as you rest!
