Travel Germany with kids?

I have seen that museum in the guidebooks. I am so skittish when it comes to anything involving torture. When we went to the Tower of London, I was practically nauseous from all those torture, beheading stories. That is one thing about Europe I do not like at all.

Oops! Scratch that.

The only other thing I recall is a doll museum, which I didn't go into because doll eyes are kinda creepy! lol.
 
Rothenburg is nice. I've been quite a few times since it's only about 40 minutes from where I live.

It's jam packed with tourists on summer weekends. Be expected to eventually stand in line if you want to visit the Christmas Store "Käthe Wohlfahrt".

If you go to Rothenburg, be sure to eat a "Schneeball" (snowball). It's fried dough in the shape of a circle - usually coated in sugar or some other sweet frosting.
