My family is gearing up to head out for a road trip for Spring Break next month. Along the way, we're hoping to spend a night in Joshua Tree NP. If you only have a few hours to spend, what kid-friendly spots would be the best? Right now I'm thinking the drive up spots of Arch Rock, Skull Rock, and Arch Rock and for a short hike, Barker Dam. Are there any other hikes no more than 2-3 miles round trip that I'm missing that could be better than Barker Dam for keeping things interesting for young kids?
Also, does anyone know of any other good and safe areas to camp closer to San Diego? We want to spend a day at the zoo and some time in the afternoon/evening at a beach. We're looking at renting a pop-up trailer and doing a night at Silver Strand, but we're open to other suggestions.
