  • Le Petite Youth Spa

    – Some may argue that young girls shouldn’t be going to spa’s but I think if you don’t go overboard with it, it’s perfectly fine. My 11 year old niece who is staying with us for part of the summer had mentioned that she wanted to go to a spa. Since she get’s straight A’s and is in gifted I thought it would be a nice thing to do for her before she left. The whole ambiance of the youth spa is very girly and luxurious. Almost everything is pink and fluffy! Very cute for a birthday party for little girls 4 and up.

  • Evelyn Greer Park

    -Evelyn Greer Park has the best of both worlds, fresh-air and  Wi-Fi Internet access! Bring your laptop and let the kids play at the playground. My 11 year old niece is staying with us for the summer and she loves to play online games, so I took them to Evelyn Greer park and she could use the laptop and my daughter could run around the playground. In 2005 the park was named one of the best parks in South Florida by Parenting Magazine.
