The Berkshires With Kids: 44 Outings

So...You've come to the Berkshires with the kids for a long-awaited family getaway. It’s rained all weekend. The kids are climbing the walls in your hotel room, the closest movie theatre is showing R-rated films, and you find yourself repeating: We did not come all the way to the Berkshires to go to the mall! Or maybe it’s Saturday at 11:00 a.m. on a perfectly beautiful Berkshire weekend, you’ve already hiked Monument Mountain, and the kids are plaintively asking, "now what are we going to do?"

Problem solved. This handy guidebook to the region’s rich, year-round cultural, historical, natural, and recreational offerings is packed with rain-or-shine suggestions for outings that will enlighten and entertain even the most discriminating family members (i.e., the kids on the wall).

This book presents 44 outings in Berkshire County that are tons of fun, and all are family friendly. Arranged by place as well as activity, this book is a fantastic reference for parents who are looking to turn off the television and get out and do things as a family.
