Our New Travel Site, Giveaways, Birthday Party Deals, Little Leagues, Macy's Flower Show
As you know, Mommy Poppins has been sharing our expertise on the best things to do in the New York City area since January of 2007. We currently have destination sites for NYC, Long Island, New Jersey, Connecticut, Boston and Los Angeles. Now we're taking Mommy Poppins global with family vacation information from wherever our own travels take us.
On Mommy Poppins Travel, our mission is to help you discover exceptional experiences and magical vacation memories with a mix of bucket lists, slideshows, reviews and articles about the best places to travel with kids in the US, the Caribbean and Europe (for now). Plus weekly roundups of top travel deals.
Find our family travel site by clicking the TRAVEL link at the top of any Mommy Poppins page or go directly to travel.mommypoppins.com to see what we wrote about this first week. As with everything, the site is a work in progress. We're adding lots of new content every week so sign up for our weekly free Travel newsletters so you don't miss a thing. And I'd love it if you'd take our quick reader survey and tell us what you hope to see on the site.
Oh, and if you're wondering what will happen to our old Travel Guide, it will live on the NYC site as a NYC Day Trips and Weekend Getaways Guide.
Here's what else we shared this week (I'll give a hint, lots of deals, a huge giveaway and more awesome fun stuff to do).
