A Day With the Sea Turtles
We recently took a day trip to the Turtle Hospital Sea Turtle Center in Marathon, FL. My 6 year old loves to learn about animals and the ocean and I’d been promising this experience for a few months. So, we decided to make the 3-ish hour trip from Fort Lauderdale, seeing as how they have reopened to the public, and with safety measures in place.

I have to tell you how my family and I spent our Saturday morning in the a/c at Aventura Mall in the most delightful hour at Candytopia.
Road Trip Essentials with Kids
This summer we have planned more local trips than past summers because of Covid 19. It helps that my sister lives in Orlando and has a beach house in Daytona (available on air BNB https://abnb.me/zSjPOOXMH8)
During these 3 hour rides, I now rely on these quick and easy road trip essentials to entertain my 6 year old.
Pokémon Go!
What are we doing today? Does this question sound familiar, especially with Covid- 19 when we no longer have the playground, indoor playground or getting together with friends. It was a daily struggle until we found Pokémon Go. Now we have something to do everyday and no longer have to wonder what to do. We get to go outdoors and spend some family time.
Summer Fun at Secret Woods Nature Center in Dania Beach
While some places are starting to open up during this pandemic, there are still a lot of venues, playgrounds, facilities that are not yet open for families in Broward county.
We spent a good part of the morning at Secret Woods Nature Center in Dania Beach. There were no crowds but there were a few people out and about enjoying the trails.
Summer Staycation!
After many months in quarantine due to covid-19, school finally out for summer and having to cancel one of our annual summer vacations I decided it was time to book a staycation.
We packed up our luggage and drove 15 mins to the Pelican Grande Beach Resort. Alas, we finally made it! We valeted our car and immediately got our masks on since the new norm since March 2020, required masks.
