Forgive the blurry iPhone pictures. They tell a story of a mom and a nanny trying to entertain two children in a foreign country with bad weather and a very limiting hotel room. Here are my Official Mom Recommendations for Traveling Through Germany (or At Least To Frankfurt and Munich):
|
Hotel Room Forts. |
|
The Christmas Train in Frankfurt is always a successful choice. |
|
The Kinder Museum in Frankfurt has a free mini museum for little kids. It was a huge hit throughout the week. |
|
They had bug parts on an overhead projector. Boy created this one on his own. Genius. |
|
My Zeil mall has an indoor playground, a little ride-on train, and lots of Christmas trees. |
|
And on to Munich, where the Deutsches Museum was a highlight. Tons of airplanes, trains, engines, cars, and other mechanical wonders. But best of all... |
|
...the basement is the Kids' Kingdom, with a fire engine... |
|
...a giant Lego pit and a water exploration area, giant musical instruments, and other fantastic areas (not pictured). |
|
Topping our list: there happened to be a giant Saturn V model at a rest stop on the way back to Frankfurt. The same rest stop had a lovely play area. |
|
I mean, seriously, German Rest Stop For The Win. |
|
It was an exhausting trip, and we were very happy to make it back to Tallinn's little airport... |
|
...where Boy could entertain himself by holding onto the suitcase, and Nanny could capture Mom on a Business Trip in all its horrifying glory. |

I cannot believe you found a Saturn V in Germany. You must be a genie.
