We were blessed enough to start travelling with our children at a young age. Our daughter is now 7 and our son is 2. We have been on cruises and 36 hours drives. Just last Thanksgiving we drove from Charleston, SC to Morgantown, WV, Pittsburgh, PA, Niagara Falls, Detroit MI, Sand Creek, MI, Sevierville, TN and back to Charleston. The kids loved it. We had coloring books with colored pencils that don't melt. We had movies and our portable DVD player. We had toys and books. We also took a leap pad map and sylus. We were able to learn about the places we were visiting on the Leap Pad and by stopping at the Welcome Centers. We checked in to every state that we crossed into, every tunnel that we went through and some other fun places like, rivers, mountains, and gorges. We were able to get a rock from every place that we visited that labeled when we got back home.

We love travelling with the kids. Just last year our family traveled from Curacao and Aruba to Canada. I actually cannot imagine not taking the kids and allowing them to learn and explore the world with us.
