Vaughan

Some of Canada’s biggest attractions and malls offer the perfect family-friendly destinations. We're talking theme parks, reptile zoos and even a fully reconstructed heritage museum. The city suburb of Vaughan specializes in big, family-friendly attractions, so grab the kids and set off to tire them with all-out fun. The area’s landmark attraction is undoubtedly Canada’s Wonderland, an amusement park that is one of Canada’s favorites. You’ll need serious energy to conquer all of its areas, which include an enormous waterpark and a theme park that has a stomach-churning 306-foot-high roller coaster. Try it if you dare. If screaming yourself hoarse with excitement isn’t your idea of a fun day out, the Vaughan Mills mall next door might be more your style. Going for the award as one of the largest in the country, this is a retail hub of more than 200 retail spots, from budget shops to higher-end stores. You may even convince the kids to go when you tell them that they can visit Legoland Discover Centre and its 4-D cinema. For more things to do in Vaughan, look no farther than Black Creek Pioneer Village. This open-air heritage museum is a step back in time to the early 19th century, complete with buildings, furniture, costumed actors and farmyard animals. It’s perfect for the entire family and will leave you feeling grateful for your modern conveniences. Choose from several ways to get close to nature in Vaughan. The enormous Reptilia is the largest indoor reptile zoo in the country, and home to 250 reptiles, spiders and amphibians. Feeding time is not for the squeamish. Alternatively head to the Kortright Centre for Conservation where hiking and bird-watching await.
