Taking kids to Florence for three days, any fun suggestions for a 8 and 10 year old boy?

Answer 1

You can go to Pisa and see the tower....it is about an hours train journey from Florence ( and then get a bus from the train station to the tower)....if you want to tire them out you could climb it!!!

Answer 2

There are lots of museums in Florence which might be boring for kids but depending on their interests you can turn the tour into something fun.

Giardini Boboli are beautiful gardens you can visit:
