mommy marie 03/13/2013 11:53 p.m. EST As fun and wonderful as all the news items make each destination sound, I have to comment that I am a little turned off by one aspect of this Macaroni Kid Family Travel edition - nearly everything you cover sounds like a sales pitch for an expensive trip. They sound great but not realistic for many families today. I am at a point in my life that my family can afford many luxuries, including exotic and long trips, however, I have many friends and relatives with young children who cannot spend a lot of money.

I have a suggestion: in at least one story per issue, consider including lower-cost travel ideas and options. You could provide some ideas to save a little money on big splurges in the other stories. I think you will expand your interested reader base and provide a service that MK promises to all families - happy, stimulated and exhausted kids (and parents). We all wnat our kids to be happy, even if the budget is small.

Best wishes to all the MK writers and  families!

Jennifer Chasse 07/31/2012 9:54 a.m. EST The FloydFest 4 day music festival  ( Floyd, VA) was super family friendly and so organized.  My kids did not want to leave the Childrens's Universe for 2 days! There was so much for kids to do and explore and try, and they all were having a blast. Every stage was filled with good music, and I highly recommend it  to families, and will be back next year.

Discovery Cove was the best vacation ever. Despite it being a bit pricey, everyone had a great time, and I thought our time there was more fun then Disney !
