Mass Transit = Mass Appeal
Sunday, January 10th, 2010I love to share “adventures” with my kids, but that doesn’t mean we have to hike a mountain or raft a river. One of our favorite modes of adventure is taking mass transit. Sure we all have cars, some not only with radios, but DVD players and a GPS doing more talking than you and your kids are. Hoping on a bus, subway or rail line can not only get you to some interesting places, but gives you time to take in your city with the kids without worrying about actually do the driving. Even if it’s just a short distance, my kids and I will often take the subway just one or two stops, the process can be just as interesting as the destination for little ones.
The best way to start your adventure is to look up your cities mass transit website to see what your options are (Here in L.A. – http://www.metro.net ) and then throw some snacks, extra diapers, baby wipes (no matter how old your kids are, these always come in handy) and your sense of adventure into a backpack and hit the streets!
