Looking For More Summer Adventures With Your Kids - Check Out This Huge List of Places to Visit in Minnesota

Going to the pool is a great way to spend the summer, but sometimes, cloudy days arrive and a pool isn't the best option.  Going on a hike, visiting one of our many zoos, checking out a museum, or grabbing tickets to one of the many sports teams in our state is a great way to spend time as a family.  Fun adventures await at the list below!

Do you bring a first-aid kit with you when you travel with the kids?

One additional item that I'd suggest all moms bringing when they go on adventures with their kids is a first-aid kit.  Pool decks can be slippery, falls can happen, or scrapes can occur in the pool as your kids are playing.  Having a band-aid ready at all times can help heal those cuts and scrapes even faster.
