7/7/17: Fun Pass Coupon Booklet for Tons of Savings on Family Fun

Trying to entertain kids during the summer is a challenge.  Then add in how expensive it is to take a family and it is near impssible.  I have found a way to make going to all your favorite places in New England a bit easier on the wallet.  Did you know if you purchase the Fun Pass from Breathe New Hampshire you can get huge discounts on places you may already go?  We use it every year to go to places during summer and spring vacations.  For $35 you can get the Fun Pass from Breathe New Hampshire and then save from $15-$49 on admission.  This includes discounts worth over $1,500 at over 100 New England family attractions!  Plus when you purchase one you are contributing to the great work that Breathe NH does.

Below are some of our favorites that are included and will hopefully give you some ideas for some summer fun.  Note this is not all the attractions included, for a full list of attractions throughout NH, RI, ME, and MA check out their website list here.

Amusement Parks:

Story Land in Glen NH:  This is a prefect Amusement Park for little ones to enjoy!  We have gone 10 years in a row.  If you only went here it would almost ($1 more) cover the price of the book!

Canobie Lake Park:  Another Amusement park that has expanded quite a bit since I was a kid.  I love it here and we go every year.

Edaville USA:  The expansion of Thomas Land is amazing!  So many great rides plus ride on the train and experience DinoLand.

 

 York's Wild Kingdom in Maine:  A combo Zoo and Amusement Park, plus a lovely Beach within walking distance!

Kahuna Laguna Indoor Water Park:  This is an awesome indoor water park in NH in the Red Jacket Mountain View.

Davis Farmland:  We LOVE this place!  Tons of animals and water play, what is not to like?

Franklin Park Zoo:  A great Zoo.  Zoo Keeper was filmed there.

Southwick's Zoo:  Another one of our favorite Zoos to go to. 

The Butterfly Place: We really enjoyed our visit there.

Again this is just a sampling of area attractions listed.  For just $35 you will receive incredible discounts at amusement parks, ski mountains, zoos, museums, and more.  You can go here to purchase one for 2017 or call their office at (800) 835-8647.

In most cases, the discount coupon offers a child, 12 and under, a free or discounted admission when accompanied by a paying adult. Offers vary by attraction.

When you purchase a Fun Pass you are also contributing to the critical work of Breathe New Hampshire.

7/8/15: Story Land Where Fantasy Lives

Next up in my series of posts on family fun in the White Mountains, New Hampshire is a super fun amusement park called Story Land in Glen, NH.  We have been taking the kids here since they were small and I am so excited that they still love to go there at the ages of 8 and 10.  Last year they added a wooden roller coaster which makes it a lot of fun for kids close to being too old to visit.  You can check out all my Story Land posts here. 

I love how you feel like you enter in to a fantasy land.

There are certain pictures we take every year and this is one of them.

This little train was new and the kids hopped right in for a picture.

When you enter to the right is Humpty Dumpty on the wall.  Now they are almost as big as Humpty!

Here was a picture when the kids were younger.

Last year they added Roar-O-Saurus and it is a lot of fun.  This wooden roller coaster is for anyone over 42 inches.  You can see all attractions here.

The whole area has dinosaur theming.  You can even read about dinosaurs as you are in line for the ride.

I personally love wooden roller coasters so I was very happy when they built this.

Here you can see the Dino on the front.

There are plenty of other rides to go on.  We love the Crazy Barn.

The tractors have always been a family favorite.  Even little ones can drive as there is no foot pedal to press.  There are also buttons inside the tractor to press and hear animal noises.

 The Antique Cars always have a long line so get to this early.

 The antique carousel is very fun too as they rock back and forth instead of going up and down.  It is a German carousel and only one of two.

The Flying Fish is lots of fun too.

There are lots of characters to see and this fun scarecrow was walking around the park.   

A great way to end the 30 minutes before park closing all of the characters come out for a little show.  This is a great photo opportunity.  

I love this Humpty Dumpty and had to hop in for a picture with him.

There are additional characters who visit on certain days, check their schedule here.  Plus they have Character Dinners and Tea Time with Cinderella.  More information here.  Rory is new and the kids met him during a mid-day show.

You must go up to the Castle and see Cinderella.

 Here is the horse and carriage to take you to the castle.

 Cinderella, Cinderella!

 Lauren was excited and hugged her.

There are so many wonderful places to pose for pictures.

This cracks me up.  I love Evan peeking out.

Silly kids.

 Tim the Tree likes to be visited.  You can write your name on a leaf and hang it on the wall.

Oh dear, Evan and Lauren what did you do?

You can enter the park 3 hours before closing on one day and then use your ticket for an additional day.

Story Land really is picture perfect and some place you must visit.
