It’s summer time and that means that parents all over the country are listening to the words that every child will announce more than a dozen times. It is not necessarily the cheery sounds of summer so much as the sounds of kids being bored and wanting their parents to entertain them. While there is always the possibility of scavenger hunts, ice cream parties, bike rides and picnics, the need is always to be outside. The number one family favorite are family slides filled with the great combination of water, being outside, and your family.
Two of the best water-parks in the country can be found in Texas. There is the Schlitterbahn Waterpark in New Braufels, Texas and the Splashtown Waterpark in San Antonio, Texas. You will find anything water related in the over 65 acres of Schlitterbahn including wild rides to lazy rivers. What is best about this site is that it changes to a winter wonderland in the winter so you can still enjoy the water in its different versions such as ice and snowfalls.
The Splashtown Waterpark in Texas boasts of being different but just as grand as it is located nearby Schlitterbahn. The difference in this park is that it has an area specifically designed for the little kids and big kids alike. There are also amusements that could take the entire day such as the splash-down movie adventure.
On the west coast there is an amusement park franchise known as Raging Waters. There are three different locations ranging all down the coast. There are rental communities nearby which means you can plan an entire vacation around a family slide park. There are also areas to be enjoyed by varying age ranges.
On the east coast there is an unusual location to have a water slide family park located in Long Island New York. It actually makes perfect sense to have family slides in such a place because it is so unusual. There are specific areas designed for every age as well as family areas for all to enjoy together. There are also other features such as an animal area and comedy areas.
