Party Animals

If your kids like to run around, or maybe they are at the age where they still like to play sports with dad, then plan a day at San Bernardino's La Plaza Park. This is an impressive play space attraction that sprawls out over two acres. It features several park benches and picnic tables as well as a picturesque gazebo where mom and dad can rest in the shade while the kids play ball, enjoy the playground rides, or just run around until they are all out of energy!

The Eco Thrift Store in San Bernardino makes looking for bargains a really fun experience.

Gently used children's clothes and accessories, shoes and even formal attire can all be found here, as well. The store relies on donations from area residents, which means that the selection is constantly changing, so it is well worth it to visit often to find the best deals.

If you are out for a great day of fun in the sun, or maybe up for some aquatic adventure, make plans to head to Lake Arrowhead.
