FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
ATTENTION PARENTS: NEED SOME FRESH IDEAS FOR TRAVEL WITH THE KIDS THIS YEAR? Area Sites Featured in a New Guide for Exploring Michigan With Children! Who says you have to head far away for vacation fun? There a hundreds of activities going on right in your own backyard for kids of all ages. Whether you’re planning a day trip, seasonal festival, weekend get-away or full-week excursion, look to Michigan attractions for great kid-friendly diversions. But, planning trips can be so frustrating … especially when your kids seem bored and are begging for new ideas on something fun to do. Sure, you can start by going on the internet and try to plan a short family trip…but, it will take so much TIME! And, how can you decide which places are really “kid-friendly” and a good value? “Traveling with family & friends shouldn’t be so hard. We wanted to make family time easy so, we researched and re-wrote this book” say Midwest parents/authors George and Michele Zavatsky. After hundreds of hours of researching and updating, the result is their book, KIDS LOVE MICHIGAN – 3RD Edition. This book is part of series of best-selling regional travel guides for ten states in the Midwest and South.. KIDS LOVE MICHIGAN has been kid-tested and the descriptions include great hints on what kids like best. This informative guide contains 280 pages packed full of over 500 places and events specifically designed for children between the ages of 2-15. The updated KIDS LOVE MICHIGAN guidebook has many enhancements making it more user-friendly. Our new, vibrant book cover opens to very detailed regional maps & directions and new, longer “kid-tested” reviews. At the beginning of each chapter, we list “Favorites.” At the end of each chapter we’ve added “tried and true” suggested lodging and dining that appeals to kids. Now, too find quarterly updates and major changes to the book on the publisher’s website. This keeps the book current for several years after publication. Travel trends indicate many people will seek opportunities to learn while taking some time off. Others will look for unusual things to do and places to go where they can enjoy something different. Michigan is full of these kind of sites and events! Kids can discover places to race over giant sand dunes, climb aboard a lighthouse ship (or Tall ship), or eat at the world’s longest breakfast table. You’ll know where to go to stand side-by-side a copper miner or maybe a printer (and even get to try your hand at it). Watch an automobile form before your eyes or learn the secrets of a perfect children’s garden or ice cream. Another weekend you’ll have all the travel details you need to go behind the scenes of lighthouses or the “Big Mac” bridge. Of course, there’s plenty of details on nationally known sites like Holland (play dress-up!), young Edison at Port Huron, or the amazing Henry Ford/Greenfield Village complex (design a car or record you voice on tin foil). And what about the wonders of nature in Michigan – the sunken Edmund Fitzgerald, the roar of the large Taquamanon Falls, Petosky fossil stones, fish ladders or pine forests. Be sure to ride the big Badger steamship across Lake Michigan or smile at the antics of giant polar bears in the Detroit Zoo. If you’re hungry, KIDS LOVE MICHIGAN knows where to be a candy taste-tester, make chocolate cheese, cereal or muffins; or tell you how to eat your way through apple, baby food, berry, cereal, cherry, fudge, ice, maple, pickle and pumpkin festivals. When you’re full, take a relaxing trolley, train, boat or bike ride along well-planned paths past pieces of history and unusual natural formations. The book provides all the details a family needs to know (i.e. regional maps, directions, phone numbers, websites, prices) to save lots of time. It’s a wonderful resource to make short vacation plans or get to know your hometown better. Best of all, if you have a limited budget, don’t worry – the book has found lots of places to visit for little or no charge! KIDS LOVE MICHIGAN – 3rd Edition & other titles for Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee & Illinois can be purchased for $14.95 in online and retail bookstores or ordered directly: www.KidsLoveTravel.com
