Cobh, Ireland, known from 1849 until 1920 as Queenstown, is now primarily a tourist town. It is sits on the south coast of County Cork, Ireland, on the south side of Great Island in Cork Harbour. There is a lot to see and do, and kids can have fun at the park that sits right off the water that has ancient cannons and a great playground! There is shopping nearby, and there are tour buses you can take to see more of the island and to get a feel for the people of the island at the same time.

Weigand. It's size is perfect to fit in a kid-sized backpack, and its extra large print is easy on young eyes!
