Many of you are starting law school with established families, kiddos on the way or may have children while attending law school. Rest assured, Nebraska (and Lincoln in particular) is a great place to have a family. Lincoln’s children’s zoo (http://www.lincolnzoo.org), children's museum (http://www.lincolnchildrensmuseum.org) and the University’s Morrill Hall (http://www.museum.unl.edu/index.html) are all great places for little ones to learn and explore! Want to stretch those legs? Check out one of Lincoln’s many parks, pools, golf courses or hiker/biker trails (http://www.lincoln.ne.gov/city/parks/ParksFacilities/index.htm). Want to take a short road trip? Head east to Omaha and visit the nationally renowned Henry Doorly Zoo (http://www.omahazoo.com), Omaha Children’s Museum (http://www.ocm.org/) or the Lauritzen Gardens (http://www.lauritzengardens.org). Or explore other parts of Nebraska by visiting the Arbor Day Farm in Nebraska City (http://www.arbordayfarm.org) for its September Applejack Festival, tubing or canoeing down the Niobrara (http://www.nps.gov/niob/index.htm), or by digging for fossils at the Ashfall Fossible Beds (http://www.ashfall.unl.edu).
