Now the weather is becoming better ,any advice where to go with 3 kids 10,12,13 .We have done science museum, west ed mall etc .We are looking for a good day trip with scenery involved.any ideas would be greatly appreciated .Thanks

Drumheller supposed to be really worth a visit and what about some of the National Parks too.

LONG daytrip I would say, and not so much worth a Visit since her MooChoperness left. (She was the last living dinosaur you know )

Elk Island National Park is nice...

I was just going to suggest Elk Island....It is quite a bit of time in the car though isn't it@

If you go be careful...Last time I was there I turned around from a bbq to find two huge buffalo (or bison whatever...) strolling over to investigate me...!!! Got to love wildlife huh!!?

I guess it depends how close you are to Hwy 16- it's only 20 mins for me in Sherwood Park.
Know what you mean about the buffalo though. They blocked the road the first time we went....

Drumheller ? Where is that ? Thanks Diane

AAh yes I have heard of that Thanks Diane

45mins from st. albert if that helps at all. we had a nice day with a 9yr old, but make sure you take your mossy spray, the huntsman good stuff or you will be eaten alive. and a picnic.

fort edmonton park in the river valley, telus world of science, childrens festival in st albert

Well worth the visit, but it would be a pretty long way. I love the scenery around there.

Thanks for the ideas,I see that you live in St Alberts .Do you enjoy living their ? The reason why i ask is we have been looking at areas,living in sw at moment but find it a bit busy. Thanks Diane

I think this might work as a day trip to check out the Reynolds-Alberta Museum http://machinemuseum.net/ If your kids love cars and planes ans stuff like that and it only 2 Km west of Wetaskiwin on Highway 13

Thanks ,girls might not be interested but son and hubbie would.Many Thanks

yeah that's a good one. Some times they have special event days as well as an air show sometime in the summer!
