Are you ready to plan that next summer vacation, but don’t know where to start? Maybe this is the year you should stay a little closer to home and explore the beauty that exists right in your own back yard. Blogger and Author Jody Robbins is here to help. Just in time for summer Jody has created the ultimate guide for families looking to discover our expansive country with their little ones. It’s a gorgeous book worthy of a spot on your favourite book shelf, stuffed full of tips and tricks for travel, and of course that list of ultimate family friendly places that we all must visit when exploring this incredible country of ours.
Jody has pulled together 25 of Canada’s best family-friendly destinations and compiled in-depth profiles for each. This list is bound to inspire the perfect family road trip. Here are just a few of the places I’ve now added to my “Travel Bucket List”:

Churchill, Manitoba– To take an arctic safari in a Tudra Buggy. How cool is that?
Dinosaur Provincial Park – Canada’s very own Jurassic Park. It’s a thing!
Nova Scotia’S Lighthouse Route – Peggy’s Cove is calling my name.
Quebec City – During Carnival to take in some of that magic!
What I loved about this book:
Sections included notes on worthy side trips, practical tips on getting around, fun facts that you never might have known, and a “Taste” section advising you on where to eat.
The pictures are amazing.
You don’t have to read from front to back. You can flip from section to section, or start in the city or area that interests you the most.
The very practical and real advice offered in the back of the book. From Money-Saving Tips to Making Mealtimes Manageable, to Finding Couple Time while travelling with your family.
Oh and of course the fact that I helped provide a tip or two for the book! Thanks for the acknowledgement Jody, it was an honour to be a tiny bit of help in the writing of your beautiful book.

I added Churchill, Manitoba– To take an arctic safari in a Tudra Buggy to my bucket list,we did Peggy’s Cove last year it’s so beautiful !
What a great book, a good way to add to your Canadian bucket list of places to visit.
What fun to browse through this book with each family member, and see what everyone chooses as their favourite.
Quebec City and Peggy’s Cove are already crossed off my list, I would love to go to Alberta!
There’s so much to see and do! I’d love to go to Churchill…and to see the Aurora!
I have so many places I still want to get to in Canada. I should grab this book so that I don’t forget some of the really great spots. Thanks
I’d love to browse this book and revise bucket list.
Sounds like a great, and inspirational, book! I’d love to visit Churchill someday.
I need to make a list too , i would love to go to Peggy’s Cove as well its o close to me and i have never been , i need to plan a day trip 🙂
Haven’t visited any of these places, so much on Canada that I need to see!
Love to own the book. Dinosaur Provincial Park is amazing. My nephew took us there when I visited him in Brooks a few years back. We did a road trip with the grandchildren to Drumheller a couple of summers ago and I was amazed at the amount time we spent at the Royal Tyrrell Museum. Canada does have a lot to offer.
Wow sounds like a great book i loved Peggy’s Cove so rocky and beautiful !
What an amazing book, I personally have always wanted to visit Churchill and see the polar bears, it was all in the planning and fell through at the last minute. 🙁
We miss so much right in our own country.
I’d love to add this book to my small library! I also want to go for a ride in the Tundra Buggy!
