This presentation summarizes some great things to do when you tour Boston with kids. My wife and I took our three kids ages 12, 9, and 5 to Boston in July 2014.

One highlight of our visit Boston was taking a walk on the freedom Trail with a guided tour. The guide came dressed in period costume and shared history, fun stories and information that held all three kids' attention for a full 90 minutes. Learn more at http://www.thefreedomtrail.org

The USS constitution is the oldest commissioned naval vessel afloat and it's a fantastic thing to tour while you're in Boston. There's also a great museum with interactive exhibits that you can tour as well.

Fanueil Hall and the Quincy Market is a great place to grab lunch, shop, and see amazing street performers every day.

The Boston tea party ship and museum is a fantastic way to expose your kids to the history of the American revolution. Kids even get to throw Tea into Boston Harbor!

The New England aquarium is one of the finest aquariums around- with penguins, sharks, all kinds of tropical fish, and a stingray petting tank.

The Boston Museum of science spans the Charles River. With 700 exhibits and tons of live presentations every day along with a planetarium and IMAX theatre.

The Boston doctors are not only fun but you learn an incredible amount while enjoying scenes of the city from the Charles River or the Boston Harbor.

If you've got some extra time you can take a short one hour cruise up to Salem we can learn all about the Salem witch trials.
