MERIDA BRAVE CASTLE MOVIE

So if you take your children to see Brave this summer, or better yet, to Scotland itself, here’s a behind-the-scenes look at what you’ll be seeing: Starting next spring, Adventures by Disney will offer a Brave-centric nine-day tour that takes families to some of the landmarks that inspired the film and features archery lessons, canoeing, and horseback riding.

Andrews was worthwhile despite the fact that I was the only one to play the legendary course (fortunately, there’s mini golf and a beach that’s perfect for exploring nearby). We took them to look for Nessie and toured numerous castles, which never seemed to get old (pun intended). Even our trip to St. Having visited Scotland with my own family when my sons were 9 and 12, I can tell you that my kids found the country fascinating.

Most minivans now come equipped with video players.

Perhaps a bit overused, but parents simply throw on a DVD if they need to keep their little ones occupied for an hour or two.
