Since you’ll be in Rome with your kids, why not go to Rainbow Magicland, a new amusement park that just opened in May 2011. Great rides like the Flying Island, fantastic shows including the Winx Club (three times a day),  water rides (so remember to bring sunscreen and bathing suits) and a host of other fun things for the whole family (see The Candy house pictured left). Read all about it HERE.

ZooMarine is a great mixture between zoo, amusement park and swimmingpool. People walk around in bathing-suits and flip-flops, everybody is really relaxed. We went a Friday in August, the busiest vacation period in Italy. Although plenty of people, it never felt crowded, there was enough place for everybody. Have a look here to see what to expect when you go there! Read the full account HERE.
