If you are bringing the whole family out for a day of fun in the California sun, then the appropriately-named Mother's Beach is the most obvious choice. This recently-renovated beach park offers plenty of amenities and attractions that will please the whole family. There's a little whale at the center of the kiddie splash pad, rocks to climb, swings to swing on, and of course, lots of sand! A swimming area for adults and older kids is roped off from the area designated for toddlers and kiddies to enjoy.

The Long Beach Ballet is one of Southern California's leading classical institutions. The ballet is both a highly respected academy that utilizes the talents of many professional dancers to train up and coming talents, as well as a performing company that regularly stages various entertainment productions throughout the year. Some of the many great shows that the ballet presents include Swan Lake, Sleeping Beauty, Peter Pan, Coppelia, Cinderella and many more. Be sure to check the website for dates and tickets.

There are some things you never outgrow. If one of your links to your childhood is a favorite superhero, comic book series or television show, you need to pay a visit to Long Beach's Amazing Comics. This is a veritable gold mine of memories. In addition to vintage items, collectibles and comic books, Amazing Comics more than lives up to its name by offering a deep stock of new items like apparel, action figures, toys, videos, DVDs, sports cards, dolls, hardcover books and so much more.
