This is my favorite place to visit on a weekend morning. It's cash only. You have to eat the pierogies.

Very cool, hands-on, and kid-friendly Science Center. I took a school group there recently and let them run wild. They loved it. So much to see!

Bike or hike the Dequindre Cut. It's an old rail-line that got updated. Really beautiful murals and it lets you off right at Eastern Market. You can rent bikes (or segways) close to the riverfront.

Belle Isle is a big park. It's fun for kids -- you can go to the beach, hang in the parks, go biking or hiking, visit the nature center, or have a picnic!

I love it here. It's about an hour or two outside of Detroit by car. Great, gorgeous, lakeside camping. Views as good as the ocean, except with fewer people. Love it. (Wine country for adults!)

The largest, open-air farmer's market in the USA. Cannot miss it. Bring cash. There are lots of great food trucks and antique shops in the area.
