Are you the “get down from there you’re going to hurt yourself” parent or the “just don’t break any bones” parent 😆
I’m a nurse so we only go to the hospital if someone is dying or broke something 👩⚕️

If you like chicken wings be sure to stop at @duffswings 🍗 they have a wing & fries combo with a mini pitcher of pop. They have a kids menu and a few arcade games. We loved it!

I shouldn’t even be sharing this with you 🙈 because…
Fort Erie is our hidden gem! 💎
But I don’t want to gatekeep bc it’s amazing here! Especially for young families. Here’s the info ⬇️
🚴The Friendship Trail
16km long and a beautiful stroller & bike friendly trail with lush trees 🌳 & good shade on most of the trail. It runs parallel with Lake Erie and there is beach access at some spots.
Crafted 1885 is a casual restaurant with a cute outdoor patio that has umbrella shades & picnic tables. They have great subs, burgers, poutine, milkshakes, etc. Order at the counter inside before you sit!
🌊Waverly Beach
A great little beach with some forested area that has trails & a short path you can walk along the water. 🛝 Visit Albert St. Park nearby!

Is wine tasting the most family friendly activity? No. 👇
Should you do it anyway if it’s something that you like? Yes! 👍
💭Here’s my thoughts:
But first follow @niagarafallscanadaguide 🍷
1. Family activities do not always need to be geared towards kids. We always include kid activities when we are out for a day but we are allowed to do things we like too.
2. Going to a winery isn’t much different than going to a restaurant. It’s a great opportunity to teach kids how to be polite, respectful, patient & all those good things!
3. Your life doesn’t need to stop when you have kids! 🛑
4. The key to bringing them to an activity like this is picking the RIGHT spot- bc all wineries are different. This is where @180wines comes in 💙👇 Here’s the details..
📍180 Estate Winery
4055 Nineteenth St., Jordan Station
✅ The staff is SO friendly! Should out to Kendall for amazing service!
✅ You can choose to be away from people if you’re worried about your kids being noisy
✅There’s plenty of green space for them
✅Their wine is amazing! and so was our charcuterie board (it says for 2 but could feed more!)
✅ We want to go back for the fire pit experience and s’mores charcuterie board 🍫😋
Comment below if you know any other family friendly wineries we can check out! 👇

I’m sure you have an age in mind 💭
Before I tell you- I should explain that when I say ‘travelling’ I don’t just mean getting on a plane and going to a new country. I know that for many people that isn’t an option. 👇
When I say ‘travelling’ I mean anything from a short road trip, a camping trip, a day trip somewhere new or even just checking out a city close to home.
We need to get it out of our minds that experiences are out of reach just because we aren’t jetsetting around the world.
*rant over 😅*
Also follow me @niagarafallscanadaguide for more motivational rants lol anyhoo…. 👇
The HARDEST age to travel with kids doesn’t exist! 🤯
It’s all hard. You know this! Every stage has challenges. Every child is different and requires different things. If you’re waiting for the perfect age or a “better” age- knock it off! lol it’s never going to be perfect. It’s time to embrace the hot mess that parenting is 🔥
It’s going to be hard if you’re at home too, PLUS they trash your 🏠so you might as well do something fun for yourself too!
