 When I think of fun family activities around South Windsor CT one of the first places that come to mind is Six Flags New England.  Six Flags is close to South Windsor only about a 20-25 minute drive.  Six Flags is a lot of fun for all ages.  I have four kids and they all love it there.  For how often we go it ends up being quite the bargain.  This past winter Six Flags offered 4 packs of season passes for $50 each and it included 1 parking pass and 4 coupon books. What a deal! Six Flags New England has food, games, rides, and concerts.  There are 2 main parks with all kinds of games, food, coasters, and rides in one area and a huge water park and food in another area.  They also have a little kids area in both parks so it is truly fun for all ages.  The water park is my favorite, but ...
