There IS Such a Thing as Kid-Friendly Spas!

Now who doesn't love a visit to a great spa? We ALL do!  And not just us Moms, Dads like it too (even though they pretend that they don't).  But now there are actually spas that offer kid-friendly packages and services.  Everything from bubble baths to banana mini facials, lesson in make-up to super cool family yoga sessions.  Here are a few great children-friendly spas that you and your family can check out this summer!  http://www.travelandleisure.com/travel-blog/carry-on/2013/4/19/family-friday-kids-spa-treatments

Family Friday: Kids Spa Treatments

By Clara Sedlak

I am a serious massage-junkie. And as a mom, there's nothing I enjoy more than a day at the spa. As it turns out, your kids want to be pampered, too. To meet this need, hotels across the globe are rolling out treatments geared towards teens and their younger siblings.

I'm not sure my 3-year-old twin boys are quite ready for a deep-tissue rub or pedicure, but yours might be. Check out these amazing packages I found, to make your kids can feel and look years younger.

Stowe Mountain Lodge, Vermont has just launched a new spa program for summer called Chillax, which includes mini-massages, chocolate masks, facials, manicures, and even aromatherapy.

At Four Seasons Resort, Koh Samui, kids can choose from over 7 all-natural treatments. My favorite: On Cloud Nine. There's a Samui coconut scrub, herbal fusion wrap with fresh banana leaves, coconut oil body massage, and a banana mini facial.

The Homestead, in western Virgina, is opening a new kids spa in June. On the menu: bubble manicures and pedicures, hair cuts, massages, and makeup lessons.

St Lucia's Sugar Beach, a Viceroy Resort's Rainforest Spa offers little ones banana and chocolate wraps, honey scrubs, and 30-minute tutorials on skin care.

Honey and Milk manicures and pedicures at Hotel Splendido, in Portofino, Italy include deep moisturizing, vibrant color nail polish, and fun nail stickers. You can also sign up the family for a yoga class.
