Boston with Kids
Boston is my favorite American city to visit, and with good reason: 1) There’s so much to do and see; 2) It’s a beautiful place; 3) There’s a ton of history; 4) The food is incredible; 5) The locals are nice; 6) It’s easy to get around; 7) and it’s one of the best large cities anywhere to visit with children.
