Just because school is on break doesn\u2019t mean learning is, too. Why not take the kids to one of academia\u2019s landmarks? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Walking through Boston is practically a history lesson on its own. Stroll past revolutionary sites in Beacon Hill, or walk the Freedom Trail<\/a> to check out Paul Revere\u2019s house<\/strong> and the Old Corner Bookstore that published original scripts by Charles Dickens, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and other literary icons. Re-enact the Boston Tea Party<\/strong><\/a> on the harbor a la Samuel Adams, or dip into the Charles River with a family-friendly Duck Tour. Traveling with high schoolers? Walk through campuses like MIT for a glimpse at college life, or visit the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum<\/a> for a true crime story with fascinating art<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More art and intrigue await at The Envoy Hotel<\/strong><\/a>, a boutique guesthouse in Boston\u2019s Seaport District, minutes from the city\u2019s best museums and winter festivals<\/a>. The Envoy is big on art and creativity. Above its local art gallery, the hotel\u2019s waterfront suites <\/strong>have funky furnishings and pops of color that make for an exciting stay. Hotel restaurant Para Maria<\/a> continues the trend with edible works of art inspired by Latin American cuisine<\/strong> and family recipes from Chef Tatiana Rosa. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The crown jewel of The Envoy Hotel is the rooftop, an ultra-cool outdoor lounge with tons of space for family hangouts. In winter months, Rooftop at The Envoy<\/a> has glass fireplaces and cozy igloos <\/strong>to keep your little ones warm, plus jaw-dropping views of the Boston harbor and the Seaport skyline \u2013 a perfect backdrop for a family photo! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Special Offers:<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0The hotel\u2019s <\/em>Kids Just Want to Have Fun Package<\/em><\/a> ups the ante with four tickets to Boston Children\u2019s Museum, daily breakfast for the whole family, and a welcome amenity for kiddos.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For even more educational fun, consider a winter family vacation in Washington, D.C. <\/strong>American history plays out every day in The District, from the glorious Capitol Building to the White House, to the Lincoln Memorial where Martin Luther King, Jr. gave his famous speech, \u201cI Have A Dream.\u201d Visit the sites for an immersive civics lesson, then treat your kiddos to one of D.C.\u2019s famous bakeries<\/strong> nearby. (Pro tip: plan ahead to book a Capitol Building tour free of charge!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Families also have their pick of world-class museums in D.C. Get up close to dinosaur fossils <\/strong>at the National Museum of Natural History<\/a>, or learn about indigenous cultures at the National Museum of the American Indian<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With so much to see and do, a central location is key for family vacations in D.C. Make yourself at home in the Capitol Hill Hotel<\/strong><\/a>, a kid-friendly (and pet-friendly!) hotel in the historic Capitol Hill District. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guestrooms and suites at Capitol Hill Hotel are among the largest in D.C., outfitted with residential comforts<\/strong> like kitchenettes, separate living spaces, and work desks with ergonomic chairs. Families also have access to children\u2019s amenities<\/a> such as highchairs, pack \u2018n play cribs, and rollaway beds,<\/strong> plus daily continental breakfast, self-service laundry, and<\/em> a 24-hour fitness center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is your family big on adventure? Consider winter vacation in the Florida Keys, a chain of tropical islands with breathtaking scenery<\/strong> and loads of outdoor activities. We\u2019re talking scuba diving and kayak tours, sunrise paddles, sports fishing, parasailing, and so much more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key West, the southernmost island, offers all of the excitement and even more family-friendly activities: a shipwreck treasure museum, butterfly garden, and evening ghost tours, too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019d be hard-pressed to find a more beautiful and relaxing Key West hotel than Parrot Key Hotel & Villas<\/strong><\/a>.<\/strong> Located just beyond the hustle and bustle, Parrot Key feels like a private hideaway with tropical gardens and waterfront bungalows<\/strong><\/a> overlooking the Gulf of Mexico. This hidden gem is one of Key West\u2019s quieter resorts because of its location, though fear not, the best of Old Town and Duval Street are just a 10-minute shuttle<\/a> ride away!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The hotel\u2019s \u201cbeachfront\u201d is a peaceful slice of paradise for reading, napping, and playing in the sand \u2013 and a fabulous vantage point for Key West\u2019s famous sunsets. Pick your favorite hammock and get ready for the show, best enjoyed with a Cuban sandwich and frozen drink in hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More delicious eats await at The Grove<\/a>, the hotel\u2019s tropical restaurant with all-day menus<\/strong> for poolside feasting. Speaking of pools, Parrot Key has four of them and convenient on-site water sports<\/a> that take off directly from the dock. Thrill-seeking teens (and parents!) should check out the jet ski tour<\/strong>, an action-packed ride through Key West\u2019s turquoise blue water.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Special Offers:<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0With the resort\u2019s <\/em>Stay and Play Package<\/em><\/a>, families enjoy a three-night stay in their choice of villa or two-bedroom suite, plus a $100 dining credit, family dolphin tour, family beach games, and an in-room welcome amenity.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Santa Monica is one of the most iconic neighborhoods in Los Angeles, famous for its beaches and buzzy restaurant scene that even the locals love. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course there are kid-friendly museums and galleries to browse, but the beach is the main draw here. Roll out a towel and laze the day away with beach volleyball and a good book<\/strong> as Cali surfers take on the swell. Later, rent a bicycle to cruise past Muscle Beach and down the 3rd Street Promenade for a bit of live entertainment by LA\u2019s street performers.\u00a0Families can\u2019t miss Pacific Park<\/a>, a famous beachfront amusement park<\/strong> on the Santa Monica Pier with pay-as-you-go rides, carnival games, bumper cars, and more.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are many hotels on the boardwalk, but we\u2019re partial to The Ambrose Hotel<\/strong><\/a>, an award-winning, eco-friendly hotel in a residential neighborhood, close to the pier but far enough away for peace and quiet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Santa Monica hotel has an exclusive suite designed for families<\/strong>, aptly named the Family Room<\/a>, an ultra-spacious retreat with two connecting king rooms and a private entrance, L\u2019Occitane bath products, a writing desk for winter homework, and complimentary bicycle rentals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond its specialty suite, The Ambrose has all the on-site amenities you need for a convenient, stress-free family vacation like Peloton bikes and a spacious fitness center, 24-hour coffee and tea service<\/strong>, and nightly wine and beer tastings for grown-ups. There\u2019s also in-room dining for breakfast and lunch, and sandwiches galore across the street at Tartine Bakery<\/a>, a cult-favorite cafe and bakery<\/strong> from San Francisco slinging tartines, health-conscious salads, and all-day breakfast deliciousness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Special Offers:<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0Book the <\/em>Family Getaway Package<\/em><\/a> to enjoy a VIP welcome amenity with popcorn and chocolate for kids, a daily $20 dining credit, and complimentary late check-out.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
