LA peeps!!! I need your help!!

Hi,

I was wondering if anybody could offer some advice!!  My family (dh, and ds, age 8) are visiting LA for a couple days from Canada and want to make the most of our touristy sightseeing. 

It would be a huge kick for my son to see some stars.  Especially kid stars.  I don't know if that is possible, so I thought I would pick your brains, and see if you have any suggestions of where we should go, what we should do.  We aren't looking for amusement parks (we already did Knotts Berry Farm and Legoland). 

Thanks so much for any help or advice you can give!!

I know at universal walk they distribute tickets for shows that need audience members (nickelodeon was one sorry if I didnt spell it right) Also I were you id look up various major tv stations on the web like NBC thats located in burbank and see if they have any type of availbility for taping shows/family viewing perhaps they can direct you. Just a suggestion

hi, thanks so much for the info.  i did already look up many shows, and sadly, the youngest age we could find (cause they have minimums) is age 10.  do you know of any areas that are just nice to walk around?  i will look up universal walk.

thanks again

Many shows have live audiences.  You can write to the network that hosts stations you're interested in and check into tickets. I know my wife went to see Dr. Phil when he began his shows on TV in LA many years ago.  If you have some time, you can likely get tickets. Finding tickets on short notice may be more of an issue.

thanks so much for your reply.  i did already look into that, and would have loved to go see a live taping, but we have nobody to watch my son, and he is too young to go into one.

My daughter works at The Grove at third & Fairfax and she comes home every day she works telling me of the stars she has encountered and according to TMZ, this is the place for stars. Good luck and enjoy your stay in SoCal
