Summertime, and the living is easy.

Unless you’re trying to entertain the family, that is.

With school out, summer is a good time take the kids out and have some fun. But where do you go?

That’s what we want to know. This week’s Best of Atlanta poll asks: What is the best family attraction in metro Atlanta?

The metro area has plenty of options, and some are even free (or almost).

Also, check out our family-friendly guide for getting the most out of summer.

If you'd like to submit a write-in nominee for best family attraction, please email your pick to nancy.clanton@ajc.com.

If enough people suggest your favorite spot, we’ll add it to our poll.
