We were there in 2005 with our kids then aged 10 & 8 yrs. they loved Bali and can't wait for next year as we are going back. We stayed at the Bali Garden Resort in Tuban just opposite Waterbom park. Make sure you go there the kids will just love it. We ate at the Green Garden & Daddy's Cafe in Tuban both really nice Restaurant's in Tuban. They is a variety of food to choose from I am sure your 11yr old would find something on the menu. The Pantai on the Beach was really nice It is up near the Bali Hai resort just follow the road past the Bali Hai around to the right and the resturant is approx 200mtrs on your left. Great seafood plus non seafood menu and cheap with great view of the sunset. There are so many places also the Stadium Bar in Tuban has nice food. You will always be able to get a burger & chips at most restuarants.
You will be able to take the kids on a trip to Taro Elephant park up near UBUD. This place was great and the elephant ride was so good. After this go into UBUD for lunch and a shop at the markets.
White water rafting is also really good fun & then you could also go on a trip to Nusa Lembogan for the day on the Bali Hai launch. You go out to their pontoon at Nusa Lembogan and snorkel, banana boat rides (unlimited), water slide on the pontoon and food supplied all in the cost of a great day out on the water.
Hope this helps if you want any more info you can email me just remove the no spam.
