Excellent!!! Finally, a trip I can give help on!

Well my friend, I go to Toronto frequently and here and here are some fun things to do!

ROM ( Royal Ontario Museum )
Ontario Science Center ( Interactive Museum, its fun )
CN Tower ( They just added a new led light feature, it looks amazing. )
Chinatown ( Just a fun little place to look at different cultures )
Ontario Place ( An OK theme park, you could pass over this one )
Eaton center ( HUGE mall, great for shopping )

The Pickle Barrell ( This is my favourite restaurant. Located a minute away from the Eaton Centre, it has excellent food, and great prices)

IF you want to buy tickets in advance at the Canon theatre, may I suggest the musical "We Will Rock You".
It is a funny, exciting musical featuring the songs of Queen.

Its also fun to just walk down Younge Street, the longest road in the world i think?? Theres cool stores, and It has alot of culture

If you have ANY questions, feel free to ask.

Hi _Twinks&Spinks_!
My mom is from Toronto so I've spent quite a bit of time there visiting family. The first thing that came to my mind was Canada's Wonderland. Here's a link to it.http://www3.cedarfair.com/canadaswonderland/#actions I loved going there as a kid, but haven't been there in recent years...

And well VMK_MagicalLadee seems to have already suggested the other places I'd suggest. So I'll just second every single one of them! Though I personally don't think you should miss Ontario Place, but it's been a few years since I've been there, maybe it's not as good as I remember anymore... BUT you must.. absolutely must eat at Pickle Barrel! Everyone has to eat there at least once...I almost think it's a rite of passage. If I think of anymore places that I'd think you'd be interested in I'll post again.

I don't think you're going to see fireworks in Canada on July 4th.

Well at least I'll see some on my way there...

LOL!

I actually have a seasons pass to Canada's Wonderland. It's amazing. it has like 15 rollercoasters.

BUT.

The reason I didn't say it is its not really located IN Toronto. It's more out of the way and i'm not sure If you wanted to go out of your way.

Ontario place is a good place for family fun, it's just not what you'd call -Big Thrills-
