But for the rest of us, it was our first time visiting this part of <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Northern California (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.visitcalifornia.com\/california-family?utm_source=Parrish_Place&amp;utm_campaign=Family\" target=\"_blank\">Northern California<\/a>. The views were breathtaking! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We flew into Sacramento, rented a car + drove to Redding.  already on your bucket list, add it. Soooooo, so worth it. We flew, but from Utah it isn&#8217;t too bad of a drive &#8212; around 10 hours. In Redding we stayed at the Sheraton, which is right next to the Sundial Bridge. In Tahoe we stayed at the Lake Tahoe Resort. If you\u2019re interested in a more outdoor experience or to save on hotels, they have an incredible amount of beautiful camping spots! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We got so many recommendations from all of you &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; THANK YOU! We have noted the ones we didn\u2019t get to for our next trip. Happy to list them at the end of this post! But we wanted to share a few of our favorite kid friendly activities in Northern California. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>REDDING, CALIFORNIA: <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The small town, mountain-town feel brought all kinds of nostalgia.

It&#8217;s an incredible location + walking distance from beautiful hiking trails : get the avocado toast at the Mosiac restaurant next door + thank me later! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2716\ufe0f<strong>Shasta Cavern<\/strong>s : we did the tour. So worth it! You take a ferry across Shasta lake, pull into a pine tree lined dock that looks straight from a romance novel, then hop on a bus up to the cavern! FUN FACT: the difference in a cave + cavern is if they have a seperate entrance + exit. Cave\u2019s have one way in, you use the same way to get out. This cavern was full of stalagmite crystals that have been there for millions of years! You follow the guide in one way, then exit out the other side. The tour guide had a flashlight so they are not required &#8211; &#8211; but I\u2019d suggest bringing your camera + a bottle of water. The caverns are constantly 58 degrees with a high humidity level of 90 to 95%. This raises the temperature to about 68 to 72 degrees. Consider the current outside weather + be sure you wear comfortable shoes, since the tour includes extensive walking and stair climbing. I tied this sweatshirt around my waist + the boys didn\u2019t want or need one. They don\u2019t get cold as easily. No climbing or crawling is required. I get claustrophobic easily, but it wasn\u2019t a problem! The passages are the same size as a hallway + the rooms are generally very open. The kids loved it! Strollers nor backpacks are allowed. I wore my fanny pack + didn\u2019t have a problem.
