Welcome to my blog for family-friendly activities on the California Central Coast! This blog started on another website and all content will be re-posted here. So welcome if you came over from my other blog, or if you are new here!

About me: I am a stay-at-home wife and mother who lives on the Central Coast of California. My husband and I have two children. Our son is 6 years old and our daughter is soon to be 4 years old. We are always looking for fun and educational activities for our family to do together in our town and up and down the Central Coast.

My blog plans: I will be mostly updating about activities between the Santa Cruz and Santa Barbara Counties. I will also eventually include trips ideas about other areas in California. So I hope you enjoy reading about this beautiful region of California!
