Boston with kids-any tips?
We want to take the kids to Boston. Just the hotel will be exciting, lol, but it’s been years since I’ve been there.
Any suggestions?

Re: Boston with kids-any tips?
Yes!! This museum was so much fun. We also love the Boston Science Museum and the aquarium, there is so much to do. My kids love walking the Freedom Trail and checking out the history. If you have time, taking in a Red Sox game was a lot of fun and I don't even like baseball. lol
Boston is awesome. There is no shortage of fun things to do. Have a great trip!!

Definitely get the Go City Boston Pass! It saves so much and includes so many attractions! We loved Boston, we went at Christmas time, so it was chilly.
How old are your kids?
We liked the The Institute of Contemporary Art Boston, The Freedom Trail, faneuil hall, Boston Common Park, the Boston Tea Party museum, the Children's museum, we went on the hop on and off trolley to get to everything, it was great. Didn't love the Aquarium. We saw Blue Man Group (it was included in the pass also), we shopped, visited a lot of bakeries. Did old church tours, cemetery tour. Visited the John Hancock Tower. We went on some Boat in the harbor...the USS something I think it was. Everything we did was included in the pass.

Thank you! I’ll look into that pass!

Re: Boston with kids-any tips?
100% get the city pass.
Freedom trail (old north church and museum for Paul revere) then get Mikes Canolli and pastry from the north end. Also eat Italian food in the north end.
Library
Read the duck book, see the statue in the park across from the library. They have a huge children’s area and many free activities there.
Duck boat tour
Fenway park for a ball game
Science museum
Children’s museum
Aquarium
Isabella Stewart Gardner museum
Art Museum - they are having some wonderful Monet exhibitions now
Faneuil Hall (eat there - also some shops)
