FAMILY TRAVEL
5 Fun Ways to Involve
Your Kids!
Ah...vacation! Family vacations are one of the
year's highlights, full of quality time, connecting,
bonding and fun. Having the kids help with the
planning allows them to be part of the process,
know what to expect and get even more excited
about the vacation.
Here are five fun ways to get your kids involved
in the planning.
LET YOUR KIDS PICK
If you haven't finalized where to go on vacation,
ask the kids for ideas! Have them help research
where to stay and brainstorm. Then, vote as a
family based on everyone's suggestions.
HAVE YOUR KIDS PLAN
Once you've decided on your destination, have
each child (and adult) pick the top things they
want to do on vacation. Have each person plan a
day or half day. Include how to get there, where
to go, where to eat and all the details. Then
everyone gets some say in the vacation plans.
PREVIEW YOUR EXPERIENCE
It is fun to get a preview and a bit of rehearsal
by watching movies or reading books that
feature your destination. You can do this
through travel guides, Google Earth, Map App on
iPad, picture books, TV travel shows, YouTube
and animated movies. This introduction allows
everyone to explore the destination, places,
cultures, experiences and things they might
do and see on the vacation.
VACATION COUNTDOWN
Part of the fun of going on vacation is counting
the days until your adventure, especially for kids.
Research shows that simply anticipating a trip
can boost happiness.
Creating a countdown calendar is a great way
to do this. You can go digital with a phone app,
or you can go old-school and use a paper
calendar, chalkboard or whiteboard.
CREATE A FUN TRADITION
Another way to involve youngsters is to decide
on a family game or tradition you want to create
while on vacation.
For example, everyone could collect
something from the trip. Ideas include
postcards, ornaments, a photograph of each
location or trinkets for a keepsake shelf-
whatever you or the kids love to help savor the
memories of the trip. A game could include
taking photos of an action figure in different
locations while you travel.
Vacation planning adventure awaits!
Involving children in travel or vacation planning creates a more fun, rewarding and
memorable vacation for everyone. AAA can help plan the best vacation for your family.
