I heard about a neat resource on Christian 107.3 this morning. There is a family that has spent the last ten years traveling the states finding interesting places to take families on vacation. From what one of authors said they give a first-hand opinion on the value of typical tourist spots AND share lots of tips for low cost and little known opportunities. They have books for many states and apparently other traveling with kids resources at their web site. More info at http://kidslovetravel.com/
