I grew up in North Conway in the 1950's - my folks owned a small country inn there. We occasionally go back to visit, most recently in the fall of 2014.
We usually stay at Saco River Camping Area just south of town.
Kids will love Storyland. My Dad helped build Storyland in the 50's, doing a lot of construction and painting.
As we use to call it "the other side of the mountains", Franconia Notch has a lot to offer...except for the famous Old Man of the Mountains which collapsed a few years ago. In Franconia we have stayed at Fransted Family CG.
By all means make a visit to the summit of Mt Washington. Truly clear days are somewhat rare - my father used to advise guests at the inn that if they awoke to one of those rare days, drop whatever other plans you might have had and head for the summit. The Cog Railway is an outstanding trip up and down the mountain. Check the schedule and try to take a steam-powered train - a lot more interesting and historical.
