No matter which part of Kentucky you happen to find yourself in, the state is full of fun attractions the whole family can enjoy together. Animal lovers will have the time of their lives at the Kentucky Horse Park, the Louisville Zoo, or the Newport Aquarium, but there are plenty of non-animal related things to do as well, including the Explorium Of Lexington, the Louisville Slugger Museum, and the Old West themed Guntown Mountain. If your kid is an explorer at heart, consider paying a visit to the Hidden River Cave and American Cave Museum, or Mammoth Cave National Park.
