Item Description

This package is perfect for those days when your kids are going stir-crazy! Get out of the house and explore Boston with 4 passes to The Discovery Museums, 2 Tickets to Puppet Showplace Theater, 2 Tickets to Boston Duck Tours, 20 tickets to the Swan Boats of Boston, and a $50 gift certificate to Panera Bread for when you need a mid-day energy boost. Take three children to spend the day at The Discovery Museums in Acton. Comprised of two buildings, The Discovery Museum for Children and the Discovery Science Museum offer age appropriate explorations of science using interactive play such as cooking in Bessie’s Diner or running a train for toddlers and controlling an 8 foot high water vortex or sending Morse code messages for older kids.  For an entertaining show, you and your child can go to the Puppet Showplace Theater in Brookline, which offers morning shows for the toddler set and afternoon shows for school age kids. Boston Duck Tours can be a fun way for you and your child to spend the day outdoors and zipping through the streets of Boston. He or she is sure to be amazed by the experience of riding in a boat on wheels, those of which retract to cruise the Charles River. While floating along, your child may be given the opportunity to steer the duck boat- a picture perfect moment (so don’t forget your camera)! You might even find that you both learned a little something about Boston history by the end of your tour. An activity that is fun and educational? A parent’s dream-come-true! If the group play date is at your house today, why not take the entire group out for Swan boat rides in Boston’s Public Gardens? You’ll earn the Mom or Dad of the Year Award for taking everyone on such an exciting adventure, and the children will benefit from a fun day in the great outdoors!
