Thankfully, at Scarborough FairBed & Breakfast, we get many more families than you might expect. Perhaps most surprising of all is not how
much we love having the little ones stay with us, but how greatly they enjoy
staying in a B&B! Some boys have said
it is like being in a Harry Potter Book; other tikes have loved
staying here so much because they simply felt what the adults feel, incredibly
and completely comfortable. Having
hot cocoa and cookies at the ready every afternoon certainly doesn’t hurt
either.
One of the most often asked questions
from our family guests is what we suggest for is to do in the city. Below are our top picks for kids’ activities in
Baltimore City.
The Maryland Zoo in Baltimore:
www.marylandzoo.org/.
Who doesn’t love seeing thousands of animals? Feed giraffes, groom the goats, enjoy a
scavenger hunt trough the park and even chat it up with real zookeepers! Sounds like a day full of learning and fun to
us!
The National Aquarium in
Baltimore: www.aqua.org/.
Learn about and watch thousands of aquatic creatures, big and
small. Walk through an Australian river
gorge. Explore the Black Tip Sharks as
they swim in their small school around beautiful coral. Discover unusual varieties of jellyfish. And this is just a bit of what awaits you in
this amazing aquarium.
Port Discovery Children’s Museum:

Here they invite you to “Play with Purpose.” What better way for the little ones to learn
than by experiencing this first hand.

children will have so much fun learning they won’t even realize all the
knowledge they are soaking up! Port
