In addition to the kid-friendly programming, Mission Bay's businesses will celebrate kids throughout October with special deals on their existing offerings, ranging from free meals for children under the age of 12, a kids' "allowance" and complimentary paddleboard and kayak rentals from Action Sports Rentals (with a paid adult rental), and free admission to SeaWorld San Diego (with a paid adult ticket), as well as a stuffed animal giveaway from the theme park for kids staying at each property.
Check out the best kid-friendly activities rotating throughout each of the Mission Bay hotel properties on Saturdays this month.
