Family Fun
Kids rule in Minneapolis-Saint Paul. Game-maker Cranium even called us the "Most Fun City," thanks to four pro sports teams, accessible arts, abundance of lakes and the biggest mall in the country.
Make the short drive to an apple orchard. Explore some Minnesota history near St. Anthony Falls at the Stone Arch Bridge. See how the pros do it at a Twins, Timberwolves or Minnesota Wild game. Make a splash at Water Park of America during your Minnesota family vacation.
Mall of America offers the ultimate kid entertainment. The LEGO Imagination Center, Underwater Adventures Aquarium and the country's largest indoor amusement park will leave the whole family ready for a return trip.
