While Florida is known for its family-friendly hotels and resorts, the Sunshine State also has several options for gathering around a campfire and spending a night under the stars. 

We've rounded up a list of some of the best campgrounds from all across Florida. These campgrounds offer amenities for all ages to enjoy, including water slides, playgrounds, hiking trails, archery, horseback riding, and more.

In addition to the list below, many of Central Florida's natural springs offer campsites as well. New to RV camping?  Check out this beginner's guide.

Founded by Magic Kingdom-loving mom and certified "Disney Master" Sandy Nussbaum-Giercyk, EZ Dis by Instant Impressions Travel Services has game-changed the Disney vacation planning process with their personal concierge-style services. Staffed with specialized consultants who know all the ins and outs of the parks and properties, the Disney authorized agency can help you customize and book your entire vacation at zero cost to you.

Why plan your trip with a Disney travel specialist, you ask? As Sandy says, planning a Disney vacation is like no other—and she would know! Not only has she been frequenting the park since she was a kid, but she now personally visits Walt Disney World® 7 to 10 times a year to keep her team and clients up to speed on the latest and greatest offerings. Known to attend multiple performances of every new show just to see it from all angles and to rotate through hotels on a 3-year cycle to review everything from the sheets to the pool, her one-of-a-kind informational vlogs, weekly podcasts, and hands-on planning services are worth their weight in Treasure Island gold (plus, she's undoubtedly earned that honorary Disney master's degree).

Nestled between the more populated towns of Wayne and Malvern, smaller but versatile Berwyn has much to offer residents, families and anyone coming to visit. Indulge your sweet tooth, learn a new skill, or wade in the creek, with many locations within a half-mile of each other in the heart of downtown Berwyn.

A visit to Berwyn, less than 20 miles west of Philadelphia, with your kids is worthwhile any time of year, but it's especially satisfying in the spring. That's why we think it's an ideal addition to our Philly Spring Fun Guide. We're sure you will, too.     

At the Early Childhood Center at Stephen Wise Free Synagogue on the Upper West Side, creative play-based learning and a commitment to helping kids build a strong Jewish identity are top priority. And with select spots available at the popular Manhattan nursery and pre-K program for kids ages 18 months to 5 years, applications are now open for the 2021-2022 school year.

Camping is a wonderful way to explore the outdoors while spending serious quality time with your family—and you can do it all for much less money than you'd spend at a Boston-area hotel or vacation rental home. While Massachusetts is home to many campgrounds and campsites, we have selected eight that go out of their way to create a kid-friendly experience that combines adventure and creature comforts.

Whether you are camping in a fancy lakeside yurt or a pop-up tent in your backyard, make downtime and evenings fun with these camping games to play with kids.

Are your little animals getting too wild inside of your house? Take them out to one of the Chicago area's many zoos or aquariums. These venues offer a chance to learn about wildlife, get outside, and support nonprofits that help animals around the world. Most Chicago families know about the two big zoos: Lincoln Park in the city and Brookfield Zoo. But families with younger kids might prefer some of these smaller zoos that require less walking, for those with shorter attention spans and little legs. Also, with a short drive across the border into Wisconsin or Indiana, kids can see a variety of animals that can't be found at the Chicago zoos!

To meet animals that are a little bit less wild, check out our list of favorite farms near Chicago. Or take a hike to see animals in the actual wild.

If you're staying in town and plan to visit multiple attractions in the Chicago area (we’re looking at you, people with visiting relatives you’ll be squiring around town), it’s worth it to look into a Go City - Chicago sightseeing pass to save money on entrance fees to attractions like the Navy Pier, Field Museum, the aquarium, and the planetarium.

A visit to the family-friendly New York Botanical Garden is a treat in any season, but a trip now means not only close encounters with the garden's living collection but also the larger-than-life art of Yayoi Kusama.

Kusama: Cosmic Nature opened at the garden last weekend and runs through Halloween. Read on to learn more about the exhibit and why it's worth a visit—or two—before fall.
