When your kids have let you know in no uncertain terms that they need a kid-friendly day, have no fear, because Santiago will deliver. With a little effort, you can win yourself a gold star as a parent by taking your kids to some places where the little ones can have some fun and tucker themselves out. From riding a surrey with a fringe on the top (pedal powered) to tooling around in little pedal boats, kid-centered museums and petting zoos, as well as relaxing pools and an amusement park, Santiago is a great place to bring kids. Oh, and don't forget the ice cream!
