Answer 1

I doubt you will have a hard time finding things to do in denver (definetly check out washington park and city park if your family likes being outside and the weather is nice) the museums (childrens, or the nature and science, or art) are nice too. In omaha, it will be a little harder to find things to do. I have great memories from when I was a kid and going to the Old Market in Omaha and there is a gigantic outdoor slide that was so much fun! The old market has shops and restaurants but really I still think the slide is the highlight (if you go, remember to bring a blanket to sit on when going down). Also in Omaha the Fontonelle forest is a very nice area and close to omaha (just a few minutes away) On Bellevue boulevard there is a fontonelle forest visitor center and then trails out back that go all through the forest so you may enjoy that. But I am not sure if it is open year round so check first.
I hope this helpes you. Email me if you have more questions.

Denver could be the perform where the glow may sun 300 times of year. Denver is a successful social scene, varied neighborhoods, and natural beauty combine for the world's most spectacular playground and with hotelbye you will see ways to get there. Denver is the place for: World-class attractions, normal wonders, growing arts world, dozens of modern and acclaimed restaurants and nightlife options galore. Denver definitely started using it all. In Denver you can visit the Mount Evans and the Mount Evans Highway. The Mount Evans Highway is really a seasonal road that will be closed during winter months months
