Suggestions for a 4 day getaway with kids

My husband has the last week in April off and we would like to go somewhere for 4 days/3 nights with our 15 month old twins

We were thinking Dutch wonderland or Hersey park

He even suggested a cruise to Bermuda but they don't have passports

Anyone have any suggestions Even a pocono weekend thing we would be open to

We just have no idea what to do lol

Thanks so much

Great Wolf (PA)--probably 2 nights max though but you could do a Hershey day or something else with it

Mystic, Ct

Boston--awesome Children's Museum and aquarium!

Baltimore Aquarium is supposed to be good but don't know what else is in the are.

If you applied now you might get passports in time. You can also do a one-day thing in the city somewhere.

I just booked a place in lancaster. Our plan is to do dutch wonderland, strarburg railroad. We may even do Hershey since its only 30 minutes from where we are staying. We rented a home from homeaway.com

FYI, they don't need a passport to cruise to Bermuda if the cruise originates and ends in the US (nor do you).

Hershey Springtime in the Park looks fun. I don't think Dutch is open then is it?

ETA I see Dutch is are open the 26th and 27th. That doesn't coincide with Hershey's hours, which seems so silly. Hershey isn't open that weekend.

Orlando. We are going on our 4th trip to Orlando next week. It is just so kid friendly with tons to do - pools, beaches at the resorts, tons of kid friendly restaurants and of course the theme parks. Each trip has been so enjoyable for us that we keep going back. We go for 3-5 days. Can't beat the short 2 hour flight.

Re: Suggestions for a 4 day getaway with kids

Dutch and Hershey are not open during the week until the end of May. They start weekend hours the end of April.

If you were looking to travel during the week, those days are out.

We've stayed at Eden several times and have another trip planned for June. But the biggest draw for that place is the outdoor pool area, and I don't know if it will be open in April (or if you'd want to use the outdoor pool then...brrr!). They have a nice indoor pool too though.

Friends of mine have stayed at the Double Tree in Willow Valley, and the indoor pool is nice.

I hear good things about Woodloch Pines too, but it's pricey.
