Are you looking for fun things to do in Ohio with kids? I lived in Ohio my entire life up until 2017. I’m planning to move back in a few years. In the meantime, I now vacation there. It turns out there are awesome things to do in Ohio that I overlooked while living there. This is the list of the many things the kids and I have done over there years.
Big thanks to Andrew for this awesome post about exploring in our own backyards, in this case Carriage Hill, Dayton, Ohio, USA. Even if Dayton isn’t your backyard, this post is meant to inspire others to seek out new adventures close to home, in lieu of always traveling far away. There is likely plenty to see within a few hours of your current location!
Often when we think of travel we imagine ourselves far away from home. Usually hopping on a plane and going somewhere tropical but that doesn’t have to be the case. The truth is that adventure is always lurking in your back yard and often it’s affordable. Sure, it may not be as glamorous as a whirlwind European tour but sometimes you have to take what you can get. My backyard is Ohio so I hope to highlight some fun, affordable, and overlooked spots for you to visit.
