Don't leave home without it!,
This review is from: We're There! Boston (Paperback)
We have travelled all over the world and I can say, without a doubt, I wish we had one of the "We're Here" books for every place we went with our two children. If you are planning a family trip to Boston, New York, Rhode Island,or Washington, D.C., these books are a must! Perfect for parents to use when planning their visit to a new city/state and perfect for the kids to learn, get involved in and remember the fabulous highlights and history in a wonderfully, child-oriented tour guide.

Definitely Worth It!,
This review is from: We're There! Boston (Paperback)
I purchased a copy of the book for each of my four children on our family's recent trip into Boston. We had never been there and had a wonderful time. The book is Fantastic and it got us through all the major tourist sites! All of my kids loved it, from my ten year old down my three year old. There is something for each of them. The book provides things to spot at each site. There is a maze, a word search, and more, including pages of information and questions about what you are seeing, like the history and map of Paul Revere's ride or the penguins at the Boston Aquarium. The book is both educational AND FUN! The pictures and graphics are excellent. The books fit easily on my kids' laps and they wrote in them with crayons, markers and pens. Now, each of my kids has a book they look back on to remind them of our trip. I highly recommend the book. You can't go wrong! When the next city's book comes out, We're There!

Good tool to use for Trip with Children,
By Japanese Mama (Brooklyn, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: We're There! Boston (Paperback)
I purchased this book through good reviews on Amazon. This was my first time to use this kind of book. My children likeed to read, challenge, search using this full color book while we were in Boston. I saw difference compare with going Philadelphia and Washington DC with the children. Children cannot enjoy educational travel as same as adults. They need some tool to enjoy, have interest, and learn in the trip. If you are not satisfied the questions in the book, you may add (or ask to your children) another question you made. I purchased three books for my 8, 10, 11 years old daughters. My 11 years daughter might feel the book is too easy, but still she liked to write down the answers. I like some question I did not usually ask to the children like how far from our home to Boston nor showing map. It reminds me I need another person's point of view to complete the question children need. I checked other children books in the information center in Boston. I prefer this book more than others. The reason is other books looked having full of historical detailed information, but boring to (young) children. (If your children are history lovers, you may prefer these educational books.) I purchased "We're There!" books through the Market Place. And the cost of the books are almost same as (or lower than) these educational books even include shipping. My additional advise is you should read the book in advance. My children some times skipped information in the book, then I needed to remind to them where they need to look at. Otherwise you passover the place you need to see. If you are still uncertain, try to get one book and review before your travel. You can judge by yourself. I was satisfied to use this book.
