Orlando Kids Summer Guide: 463 Best Festivals, Deals, Activities & Free Things to Do
Welcome to our Orlando Summer Guide! I’m Charlotte, Mommy Poppins' Orlando Community Publisher and a mom of three. Based in Mount Dora, I work alongside a team of parents in Orlando and the Central Florida area who are out there every day, checking out all the fun things to do with our own families so we can give you the inside scoop.
Our Orlando Summer Guide is the accumulation of our years of exploring all the beaches and swimming pools, museums, festivals, theme parks and water parks, rainy day activities, major attractions, and so much more!
In our Orlando Summer Guide, you will find:
-
Bucket Lists of the Best Orlando Summer Fun

The Best Ways to Get Wet & Keep Cool
-
Summer Music, Movies, Festivals, and Fairs
