National Parks
One of the great things about the Midwest is its abundance of National Parks that offer budget-friendly getaways. Affordable travel doesn't get any better than a road trip where you can enjoy the natural beauty of places like Michigan's Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. Here, you and your crew can go camping, biking, hiking, boating, kayaking, tubing, and swimming.  Or you can just enjoy exploring the dunes.
 
Another great National Park is Wisconsin's La Croix National Scenic Riverway with more than 200 miles of river, plus historic towns and hiking trails. You can fish and camp, or kayak and canoe past the gorgeous forest landscape along the river.
 
Amusement and Water Parks
If your family loves amusement and water parks, Mason, Ohio, is one town where you're sure to find both for your best getaway. Kings Island amusement park boasts more than 100 attractions and rides that include thrilling roller coasters and Soak City waterpark. Mason is also home to two other waterparks – an indoor one at Great Wolf Lodge and The Beach Waterpark.
 
In Gurnee, Illinois, just outside of Chicago, Six Flags Great America is packed with thrill- rides, as well as rides for kids and for the whole family. You can also enjoy family- friendly entertainment with popular cartoon characters and chow down on awesome eats like pizza, burgers, and funnel cake sundaes. And for the best getaway in the Windy City, if weather allows, head to Chicago's beaches for 26 miles of lakefront to enjoy for free.
 
Cool Museums
The National Museum of Toys and Miniatures in Kansas City is all about play. The collections include dollhouses in a variety of styles, complete with tiny furnishings, GI Joes, stuffed animals, wind-up and pull toys, and colorful marbles. You can also see detailed miniatures like a tool chest, cowboy boots, a log cabin, a jewelry store, and even a tiny mousetrap. There are fun interactive exhibits for the kids, too.
 
Cleveland's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum is sure to have something interesting for every generation. Exhibitions explore the roots of rock, including styles like R&B, Country, Blues, and Bluegrass and genres like Heavy Metal and Soul. You can also see artifacts from top stars and learn to play instruments and even jam with family and friends.
