Top 8 Things to Do In Napa Valley with Your Kids

If you are planning a trip with your kids then don’t ignore Napa just because thinking that it offers activities only for adults such as wine tasting and fine dining. The region offers much more and is perfect for a family getaway. Apart from being one of the largest wine producing regions, it is the most beauty-centric and eco-luxurious places to visit in the world.

Here is a list of super-fun things that you can do while you are in Napa with your kids:

#1 Old Faithful Geyser

Old faithful geyser erupts in a plume of hot water after every 20 to 30 minutes. The sight seems like a lovely rainbow in its delicate clouds of mist. The surrounding landscape makes for a perfect picnic spot. It is also believed that the geyser is a reliable predictor of earthquakes. Its eruptions deviate, if an earthquake is likely to happen within a radius of 500 miles.

#2 Sonoma TrainTown Railroad

This vintage quarter-scale railroad park is one of the most charming and old-fashioned amusement parks that you will ever see. The park features a lot of locomotives and also has a zoo where your kids would have a great time feeding the critters.

#3 Di Rosa Center

Visit the Di Rosa Center with your kids and get up close and personal with modern, contemporary art. This art center offers classes for kids that will encourage them to get down and dirty with hands on art projects.

#4 Cameo Cinema

If your kids are old enough to sit and understand the movie, then you can try a family-friendly show at this single screen theater.

#5 Petrified Forest

About three million years ago, Mount St. Helena erupted and spewed lava and ash across the entire region. The pine trees and redwoods turned to stone. The Petrified Forest started to be uncovered in 1870 and today you will find stroller-friendly shaded trail that will leave your kids to wonder at the petrified trees and rocks. The forest offers an amazing sight to the visitors.

#6 Jelly Belly Factory Tour

A self-guided tour to Jelly Belly factory is sure to satisfy your kids. You will find interactive exhibitions, games and free samples along the way.

#7 Castello di Amorosa

This winery is designed in a medieval inspired Tuscan castle with drawbridges, dungeons and animals out front. Kids will love to explore the 136,000 square foot castle and its beautifully manicured lawns. They can descend in the depths of the dungeon, climb the high towers of the castle and gaze at the gloomy waters of the trench.

#8 Napa Art Walk

Instead of taking your kids to the museum and being confined between the structured walls, visit this outdoor urban gallery. Go for a walking tour downtown Napa and look at an assortment of the modern sculptures.
