And because we want you to have the best time during your stay, we’ve created this guide on ways to have fun in Big Bear with your kids. Keep reading for some ideas on happy adventures!

See the Bald Eagles

Big Bear is an all-American town,and there is nothing more American than the symbol of our country, the bald eagle. The Big Bear Alpine Zoo,found at 43285 Goldmine Drive, is home to Alaska and Valentine, two rescued bald eagles that can’t survive on their own.Located in a habitat designed to recreate their natural habitat,it’s the perfect spot to learn everything you never knew about these majestic birds. And if you have patience, consider signing up for the bald eagle course,where volunteers stake out spots where bald eagles are known to play.For an hour at a time, you will watch and record the bird’s behavior to help naturalists learn even more about the mighty bald eagle.

For a Fun Kid Friendly Big Bear Activity, Try Tubing!

Winter sports are popular in Big Bear, with skiing being the most popular of all. Unfortunately, skiing can be expensive and slightly dangerous for the less coordinated, and for families traveling with very young children, downright impossible to accomplish. Snow tubing, however, is an inexpensive kid friendly Big Bear activity you can enjoy with your tiny babies in tow (Aren’t the new generation of baby carriers wonderful?) and is as exhilarating as you remember! Grizzly Ridge Tube Park, Big Bear Snow Play, and the Alpine Slide at Magic Mountain are just three places you can get your snow fun on without expense or fear!

Located just a short drive around the lake from your Big Bear Vacations escape, the Big Bear Discovery Center is a place for outdoor lovers of all ages to fall in love! Offering guided nature hikes, picnic areas, and a Nature Discovery Zone for the wee ones in your traveling group, a visit to the center will enhance any vacation experience!
