Wife wants to escape Houston for a weekend and switch it up. We really haven't taken any true family trips yet that don't include going to stay with other family. Our oldest daughter just turned 4 and our youngest is turning 2 beginning of December.
We will either be doing this the Friday-Sun after Thanksgiving or the weekend of Dec 1. I am pushing for the day after Thanksgiving.
She found this Groupon so we could check out SeaWorld and two other attractions. I also saw the thread about the RW lighting parade and thought they may also be a fun thing to do if we end up going that weekend.
Questions:
Possible Itinerary:
Drive to SA Friday mid-morning, and go to non-premium attraction #1. Afterwards check-in to the hotel and then attend Riverwalk Lighting Parade.
Saturday: SeaWorld first thing and then just hang out at Hotel, walk the riverwalk, dinner, etc...
Sunday: Breakfast, check out of hotel, Non-premium attraction #2, head straight back to Houston.
Any tips/suggestions would be appreciated. Neither of us are familiar with SA.
TIA.

Questions:
- Best place to stay? I assume Riverwalk but any specific Hotel recs that would be ideal for traveling with little kids and being able to get around.
- If you view the Groupon, what would be the two best non-premium attractions? SeaWorld will be the premium attraction of our choice.
- Is this Groupon even worth it or better alternatives for exploring SA with little kids? Are there other/better events or attractions going on those weekends we should know about?
