Summertime is a time to enjoy the break in school with a
farewell to school time schedules. Most kids in Orange
County enjoy the great outdoor weather that summer brings. There are many
ways to savor the time off and the beautiful weather. Here are a few of our
favorite summertime activities for kids in Orange County
Beach Time in Orange County
Having a beach day is one of the best ways to spend a summer
day in Orange County with kids. We have many great beaches in the OC. Some of
our favorites include Huntington Beach, Newport Beach, Laguna Beach and Crystal
Cove or Little Corona Beach. You can pack a lunch and snacks or enjoy a yummy
beachside burger at a restaurant. Be sure to bring sunscreen so you don’t burn.
Water Sports in the OC
Orange County offers an abundance of watersports for people
to enjoy. Newport’s Bay Back has water sport rentals including kayaks, paddle
boards and even canoes. If you are feeling adventurous, you may want to
consider renting a wave runner or a Duffy boat and enjoy the OC water.
Orange County Kids
Museums
You can take advantage of the many wonderful Orange County
kid museums such as Bowers Kidseum, Pretend City
or even the famed Discovery Science Center. These museums provide interactive
fun for kids to enjoy. These are not your typical look, but don’t touch
museums. They are engaging and fun while providing a fantastic learning
experience for you kids.
Theme Parks in Orange
County
The Granddaddy of all theme parks is of course the world
favorite Disneyland. Other than the Happiest Place on Earth, there are many
Orange County theme parks that kids love. Some of our favorites include Knott’s
Berry Farm, Adventure City for the little ones, California Adventure, Balboa’s
Fun Zone and Boomers.
Roller Skating in OC
If you want to beat the heat and head to an air-conditioned
fun place, try roller skating. This is a fun experience for kids that are older
than four or five years old. There are tons of fun activities for the little
ones, but this is best suited for kids that are over four. Roller skating is a favorite American
pastime, and I remember the fun times I had as a tweeny bopper on the roller
rink.
