Must Do's in Key West for families
It's our first time in Key West with the kids and I don't think the Duval Crawl is what a responsible parent would expose their kids to. What are some things me must do or see while in Key West with our 2 children; ages 9 & 12?

I was in Key West last month, here are some fun ideas with kids:
- You MUST MUST MUST go to the Butterfly Conservancy. Imagine strolling through an indoor tropical garden with hundreds of colorful butterflies flittiing around you.
- Of course the sunset celebration at Mallory Square
- Glass bottom boat tour to see lots of cool colorful fish
- Go on a kayaking tour with one of the local outfitters
- Have lunch at Blue Heaven, casual & kooky outdoor dining spot.

Take the "Conch Tour Train" to learn about the history and landmarks of Key West. Go to the Little White House where Truman went many times. Tour the Hemingway house, Audubon house and the lighthouse. Find out if the "Moped Hospital" still has it's great bicycle tours of the back streets. Visit the art galleries. Enjoy...

i second the recommendation for the Butterfly Conservancy. also, although i could have happily passed on it, there's a Ripley's Believe It Or Not Museum that my 11 year old son and his friend loved.
