Timeframe will be very early March otherwise we would probably just do a beach trip. I guess we still could but would that even be worthwhile? I wouldn’t think so given the time of year and likely temps.

The kids/teens will be all girls so consider that and wish me all sorts of luck.

That would be too much driving for that short of a trip

Bring them to mountain bike in Northwest Arkansas. Any halfway active teens would enjoy it. The way our trails are set up now, it's basically like snow skiing.. but on a bike. You can go out and ride greens all day, or you can push yourself and start jumping and hitting the steeps.

Smokey mountains seems like the obvious good choice. You could stop in Huntsville, AL on the way there so they can see Space Camp and the whole museum there which is really cool.

If there was a launch going on at Cape Canaveral, FL, that could be another cool idea since it could also double as a beach trip.

You could take them to Texas to go to 6 Flags, Houston Rocket Center, Schlitterbaun, The Alamo, Sea World, etc.

You could take them to Ohio to see the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame, The Baseball Hall of Fame, and Cedar Point (massive amusement park famous for its rollercoasters).

Houston:
--Museum of Natural Science has mummies, lots of cool dinosaurs, etc. The museum district also offers the Children's Museum (better for smaller kids), the Menil collection (kids like looking at art) and the Rothko chapel (perhaps better for older kids, but quite moving)
--Ice skating at the Galleria, combined with a little shopping (tell them you'll match, up to a certain amount, whatever money they save between now and then toward a shopping spree)
--Johnson Space Center
--stay at a hotel with an indoor pool, like the Marriott in the medical district
