Book Description

The Complete Idiot's Guide May 6, 2008
The perfect family getaway is closer than you think.

This easy-to-use, affordable guide helps parents transform their own backyards into unforgettable family escapes—from insect safaris to sports camps, artist colonies to pet parades and block parties.

• Great activities for kids of all ages—can be adapted for use by camp counselors, Scout and other group leaders, teachers, day-care workers, and home-schooling parents
• Provides the perfect alternative to vacations plagued by high gas prices, flight cancellations, and budgetary constraints
• Goes beyond the literal backyard to include other close-to-home adventures
