train tickets?

Hi

We are staying in Cologne for a week at the beginning of July. We arrive at Weeze airport, there are two adults and one 12 year old child. We would like to go to Phantasialand, Movie Park Bottrop, The Chocolate Museum, Rhine Cruise, and shopping of course! What train ticket/tickets would cover us for all of these excursions? Help? Thanks
