Very much appreciate advice on fun things to do this July 4 in Boston with two boys, age 9 and 5. We are going to Red Sox/Rangers on July 5. They are more sports nuts than American history nuts, if that matters. Thoughts on a great sportsbar to watch the game on July 4 are also appreciated. Staying at the Westin Copley Place, but willing to travel.

Thank you AbitaFan08 and others for this wonderful thread.

Nah, Boston isn’t really known for either of these things.

You’ll be limited on sports since colleges will be out and the only professional team playing will be the Sox (maybe MLS is playing? I don’t know)

Obviously the Freedom Trail is a great historical experience for your kids. With kids that are actually interested I would say do a guided tour - I usually advise self-guided. Bring them to the Public Garden and do a swan paddle boat - they will love it.

If you can get to Fenway early (very early) on July 4th, you can sit at the bleacher bar that looks into the outfield and watch the game live and on tv at the same time.

July 4th weekend is incredibly busy here, as you can imagine.
