**Each week I'll feature fun activities you and your kids can enjoy for the rest of summer vacation.

Soon the kids will be going back to school, but there is too much summer left not to do anything with your kids. Let's strap in and hit some rides at some of these Colorado amusement parks.

If you're constantly looking for something fun to do in Colorado then you aren't looking hard enough. There is so much to do, whether your spending money or not there is a lot to choose from.

Take a ride on the fun side at the amusement parks.

Glenwood Canyon Adventure Park is one place I know your kids will have fun. They have all different kinds of rides up there. But there is one ride that absolutely scares me. The Giant Canyon Swing.

Have you ever wanted to see what Santa does in his off time? Well, Santa's Workshop is the place to take your kids. They can meet Santa while also enjoying the rides that the park has to offer. They even have an antique car ride that the adults can drive with their kids.

Take your kids to one of the oldest amusement parks in Colorado -- Lakeside Amusement Park. Lakeside was founded in 1908 and is still going strong. They have a lot of rides and they even have an area of rides for the really small kids.

This content is brought to you by our partners at Bananas Fun Park. Bananas invite you to their newly opened water park, Coconut Cove. In addition to their already fun activities, now Bananas offers a place to cool off on a hot summer day.
