The Christmas holidays are a good travel period for Uruguay. It is important to plan this well beforehand. In this period it is high season throughout Latin America. You can combine a trip to Uruguay with for example a visit to Argentina, Brazil and Antarctica. Uruguay is very child friendly, Uruguayans love children. In some accommodations it is possible that there is a minimum age limit, but this is sporadic. Most restaurants have childseats for children and most hotels have children's beds and chairs. The coastal region will attract your children, but staying at an estancia will also leave an impression.
