JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort & Spa have so many FUN programs for kids this summer that I can’t wait to try out. Along with fun theme nights, Little Passports, an educational subscription service for kids, offer a new Texas learning experience at the resort.
Geared towards kids ages 5-12, Little Passports follows globetrotting characters Sam and Sofia as they travel the world on a GPS enabled scooter. Originally designed as a home subscription service, a customized Little Passports activity will now be exclusively offered to JW Marriott San Antonio guests through the resort’s Range Riders Kids’ Club.
Participants will receive the Little Passports – JW Marriott San Antonio Edition journal featuring the geography, history, and points of interest of Texas and the beautiful Hill Country. Each of the 24 pages in the interactive guide is designed to teach, challenge, and entertain young explorers. The Little Passport experience is complimentary and will be offered on Saturdays and holidays to resort guests ages 5-12 years old throughout the 2014 summer season.
And can I suggest a Date Night? JW Marriott San Antonio has begun Kids Night Out for the summer of 2014!
