San Francisco is a first rate destination and it has plenty attractions that are kid friendly. From Alcatraz, to theaters, to museums you have plenty to do in San Francisco.
San Francisco offers both locals and visitors great activities, like the Young Museum and the Exploratorium, or amazing beaches, where kids can play for hours, and of course the 1,000 acre Golden Gate Park and the Presidio national park.
But the best part is that the city is easy to navigate and most kid friendly places are in a concentrated areas with access to public transportation. So here are my favorite places in San Francisco. If you have another favorite spot let me know.
Walt Disney Family Museum
This is not Disneyland, but you will find a miniature replica of the park in the museum. Here you will find the Disney family memories and the life of Walt Disney, including his films and of course Disneyland.
There is something for every age, while the grown ups are learning about the evolution of Mickey and Disneyland. Kids can participate in the Little Open Studio, where they will enjoy story time and family-friendly activities, specially kids under 7 years old.
Also every day of the week, except Tuesdays, you can enjoy a Classic Disney Movie, from Bambi to Mary Poppins. Make sure to check out the show calendar, but they usually show 1 movie in the morning and a couple of movies in the afternoon.
