What are we going to do this summer?!!?,
By A Customer
This review is from: Exploring Oklahoma With Children: The Essential Parents' Travel Guide! (Paperback)
As the end of the school year was approaching this mother of
five wondered what to do with our summer. Our family was born
and breed here in Tulsa, Oklahoma, yet we had never seen many
of the natural wonders this great state has to offer. I certainly
did not look forward to a summer of "paying" to be entertained
at the movies, water parks or (eeek) in front of the TV.
Oklahoma is rich in its Native American heritage. With a state
that suffered the "Grapes of Wrath" image and then overcame to
be a rich oil capitol, surely we could be entertained here.
I purchased a copy of "Exploring Oklahoma With Children" in May.
After a brief review of the book, I knew I had stumbled upon
the key to an eventful summer. I spent every night for a week
highlighting sights and events. I committed to the children
"field trips" two days a week using our book as our guide.
To fully appreciate this you must understand that this summer
our children were: 8, 7, 5 (twins) and 1. We had the summer
of our lives! We saw an old fort, Pawnee Bill's home, Will Roger's
birthplace, a dairy farm, a port, many museums, parks and much
more. These were all child friendly and were cheap to FREE!
Our summers will never be the same. This year we will go further
than one hour from Tulsa (our limit with a 1 year old).
As the book is revised and reprinted each year (chalked full
of discounts and coupons) I will be first in line at Amazon Books
to purchase "Exploring Oklahoma With Children". We all look
forward to exploring Oklahoma year round with the help of author,
Sarah Lowrey Taylor. We'll see you in Oklahoma!

I purchased this book for a good friend that was moving to Oklahoma. Although I love the idea, it is very old and outdated - 1995 to be exact. All of the coupons in the back of the book expired in 1996. I still sent it to my friend and hope that Oklahoma hasn't changed that much in 15 years but I was very disappointed that it was such an old edition.
