Family friendly Montreal?

I was thinking about doing a long (like 5 day) weekend at a (drive-able) city over the summer.

DH and I went to Montreal many years ago and loved it, but I'm wondering if it's worth it to go again with small kids.

Anyone been up there with a young family with suggestions on how to occupy 4-5 days worth of time?

We love the outdoors so we would be up for some nature stuff outside the city as well.

We are going to Montreal in the fall- our daughter will be 10. We were there without her a long time ago and went to the Biodome, which seems like a good attraction for kids. There is also a neat little natural history museum on the McGill U campus, which I think had great views of the city & might be a good place for your kids to run around. There is also a botanical garden.

I just got back from Mont Tremblant which is about 40 miles or so from Montreal. It is such a beautiful place. In the summer, it looks like they have a lot to do. There was a beautiful lake, hiking trails, mountain biking trails, zip lining, pools at some of the hotels. This is what I saw but I'm sure there is more. Look into it.
