Fun in the Bay Area

The Bay Area has some pretty amazing places to take the kids.

There are so many opportunities for fun. Creative fun, outdoor fun, sporty fun, family fun, educational fun... There are so many places here that fall into that last category and they're so much fun that kids don't realise they're learning until it's too late. Insert evil laugh here.

I'm always discovering somewhere new to add to the list of places to take the kids. So I figured it was time to make a check list of these exciting places to take Ava and Lola.

Here goes (in alphabetical order)...

Aquarium of the Bay, San Francisco
Bay Area Discovery Museum, Sausalito
Cable Car Museum, San Francisco
California Academy of Sciences, San Francisco
Chabot Space and Science Center, Oakland
Children's Creativity Museum (formerly Zuem), San Francisco
Children's Fairyland, Oakland
Exploratorium, San Francisco
Golden Gate Park, San Francisco
Habitot Children's Museum, Berkeley
Jelly Belly Factory, Fairfield
Lawrence Hall of Science, Berkeley
Monterey Bay Aquarium, Monterey
Museum of Children's Art (MOCHA), Oakland
Oakland Zoo, Oakland
Pier 39, San Francisco
San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, San Francisco

Of course, there are many more wonderful places to take the kids and I'm sure this list will grow.
My mission is to try and visit all of these places (and more) with the kids.
I'll share our visits here on Little Hiccups as we cross them off the list.

First up, California Academy of Sciences...
