John F. Kennedy Space Center

Why play astronaut at nearby Walt Disney World when you can meet a real one at NASA's launch headquarters in Cape Canaveral, where daily astronaut-hosted lunches (and now, for a limited time, dinners, too) are part of the appeal? Indeed, the complex has witnessed some of mankind’s most spectacular technological achievements, and while the full astronomical scope might be lost on the little ones (and even on big ones), exploring a full-size replica of the Explorer space shuttle and touching a moon rock are sure to provide kids with an experience that’s truly out of this world. If your timing’s right, you might even get to watch a live launch, too. www.kennedyspacecenter.com
