Go to a dude ranch near Bandera. a bed and breakfast near LaGrange or Belleville. Go fishing in Galveston Bay on a chartered boat trip. San Antonio for Sea World and the River Walk.

I am assuming that since you asked the question in the Houston section, then you want to vacation in the Houston area. In Houston be sure to visit NASA (call to see where they are offering money off coupons), the Houston Zoo, all of the museums (the Children's Museum on Binz in the Museum District is a fantastic place for kids and admission is only $5 each and you can take lunch to eat there in their park or the snack bar is not expensive). Both Nasa and the Children's Museum are all day excursions. Visit Galveston. Once there go to the Strand, the Bishop's Place, Sea Wolf Park on Pelican Island, take the ferry over to the Bolivar Peninsular and go to Crystal Beach about 1/2 mile down on the right. Go to Schlitterbahn, a huge water park in Galveston, visit the museums there. Get on line before the dates of your vacation to see what else you would like to do here. There is sooooooo much to do in Houston. Try these sites:
NASA http://www.spacecenter.org/
The Children's Museum

City Vistor Site

There is a section with 34 things to do that cost $2 or less each---a great value for a family
