Tips for planning a Family Vacation to Turks and Caicos
When it comes to great vacations, there are not many that are as relaxing and fun as a getaway to the Caribbean, and Turks and Caicos Islands are as good as it gets. For those who are traveling with family, there are a number of hotels that offer kids programs in Turks and Caicos, with babysitting services for small children, scuba lessons for older kids, and everything in-between. Kid's programs give parents a way to relax and enjoy their vacation while making sure the children are entertained at the same time. Two such programs are the Veranda all-inclusive resort's VIK club and Grace Bay Club Kids Town.

The Veranda 5 star resort has a unique kid's club for children 3 to 12 years old. In addition to a kid's club room with video games and an outdoor playground, the Veranda offers an abundance of supervised activities for the kids. Nature walks, beach parties, afternoon island excursions, pajama parties and movie nights are just a few. Many of these fun activities are also educational. For those who have teenage kids--there are plenty of fun opportunities for them too, with extreme excursions which include para sailing, kite boarding and scuba diving.

Grace Bay Club Kids Town offers a kid's program that is created for children from infancy to 17 years. The appropriately named Very Important Kids Program (VIK) is designed to make kids of all ages feel as important as adults. The VIK program includes such things as an age appropriate gift package upon arrival, unlimited use of the playroom and an invitation to all Kids Town activities. For an additional fee, there are half day excursions for all ages with everything from cave tours, to scuba diving lessons, to exciting trips to neighboring islands. Kid's programs are divided up into several different groups, according to age, to insure a good time for everyone.

Whether you choose to stay at Veranda all-inclusive resort, take advantage of Grace Bay Club Kids Town, or choose one of the other popular kids programs in Turks and Caicos, you can be sure that a good time will be had by all!
