Traveling to Naples for 4 days with our 5 year old. Can anyone recommend restaurants that are kid friendly or any fun things to do during the day while my husband is in meetings?
THANKS!

I've been here in the Naples/Estero area for 5 years. We have a 4 yr old and have found this coast no to be very kid friendly at all. There is not much to do for kids under 7. Naples zoo is one idea, it's nothing like the zoo's up north but it's ok I guess. There is also King Richards which is on Airport Pulling Rd. Actually both places are on Airport Pulling. I can't think of any restaurants geared toward kids. Hope this helped somewhat.

Yeah. And King Richard's is essentially an arcade. Southwest Florida is not kid friendly.

Au contraire, I live here with a 5 yr old and 3 yr old. There's lots to do.....Collier County has some great parks....checkout the new water park at North Collier Regional, open weekends, not heated, but fun. If you don't catch that, the playground next to it is great for kids. The Zoo, Fleischman Park by the mall, Lowdermilk beach, Cambier Park in downtown, Collier County fair is coming up in Feb, Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary.... Kid friendly places to eat....Moe's, Joe's Crab Shack, Carrabba's, good luck and enjoy. I'd skip King Richards....big rip off.
