Subbing. We are planning a 2015 trip. Lots of great suggestions.

I agree -this thread has given me a lot of ideas for our August 2014 trip. Our kids will be 7 and 5. Any suggestions that will appeal to this age group? DH thinks they are too young to appreciate Hollywood tours or hiking in Yosimite.

Our son has loved visiting "the big trees" and hiking in the national parks since he was big enough to walk! I think kids that are 7 and 5 would love the chance to see Yosemite, even if they don't appreciate it in the same way an adult might. True, they won't be able to do the major hikes, but there are plenty of kid-friendly walks.

Legoland, Sea World, San Diego Zoo, Wild Animal Park, and the beach are all great options for kids that age. Our son could spend hours just exploring the coast line and looking in tide pools. Just remember that the water will be cold. Lots of people come thinking it will be tropical warm, but that isn't the case on the California coast!
