Many of you are starting law school with established families, children on the way, or plans to 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 Fossil Beds (http://www.ashfall.unl.edu).
