Exploring Mexico with kids could take a lifetime, and we’ve only just begun! Despite what much of the media says about this country, Mexico is full of safe cities, spectacular nature, amazing food, and warm, friendly people.
FUN THINGS TO DO IN MEXICO WITH KIDS
My first trip to Mexico was for a photoshoot with my old job. I was working and without the family, but as soon as I returned, I realized that Mexico was now on our bucket list.
The country is much more diverse than you might expect. There are beautiful beaches, stunning mountain landscapes, vibrant cities, and lots of amazing adventures for families.

After spending nearly two years in Valencia, on the Mediterranean coast of Spain, we decided to explore Mexico with kids. Before spending time in Mexico with children, I thought the entire country would be hot, humid, and sandy.
Not so.
Sure, our time in the Yucatan Peninsula has been tropical, but places like Mexico City and San Miguel de Allende has the climate you find only at high elevations.
