South America or Central America with 3 Little boys

We want to take a 7-9 day trip in February with our three high-energy little boys (13 months, 4 years, and 6 years old). I would prefer a destination that does not have a big time change (we live in San Fran), since our baby has not shown to be very flexible with time changes. I don't feel like I know where to go. We have travelled a lot as a couple and as a family, having taken our older two boys to India and Ethiopia, so I don't fear challenging destinations. Does anyone have any suggestions for fun destinations with lots of little children? We are not really beach folks. And we have already been to Costa Rica and Belize, and are looking to try something new.

Thanks
Anne

Sorry, won't be helpful here but thought I'd reply. I was about to post something similar and may still do- we are planning on South/Central America next August/September but for two months, so a different kind of trip to yours I guess, though we have two high energy boys, 6 and 4, and will have a 4/5 month old baby (boy?) by then. Both Costa Rica and Belize are on our maybe list. Will keep a eye out for your replies though. Thanks.

Roatan, an island off the coast of Honduras, is beautiful, fun for kids (nice beach, easy snorkeling, and some good kid-friendly activities like seeing the monkeys at Gumbalimba Park, swimming with the dolphins, the iguana farm). I also really enjoyed El Salvador- we did a house swap with a place on the Gulfo de Fonseca coast when my boys were 4 and 6.

There is a direct flight from SFO to Peru. Go to Cuzco and visit Macchu Piccu.

I am travelling with my 4 year old next month from Argentina through Chile, maybe Bolivia, to Peru. Can't tell anything now but will post my experiences on my blog www.vamasworld.com, so check it out around May;)
