Planning an Educational Vacation?

We’ve all heard about “Summer Learning Loss,” where kids educational development backslides during the long summer break. But according to a recent American Express Spending & Saving Tracker Survey, an overwhelming majority of parents with kids under 18 believe learning should continue throughout the summer, and most believe it’s a good idea to take an educational family vacation. In fact, 45 percent of parents surveyed said their summer vacation plans for this year include an educational component, whether that’s exploring history and culture (30 percent), exploring wildlife while on vacation (27 percent), and/or traveling to a destination focused on culinary arts (8 percent). For my family, a recent road trip through southern Oregon and northern California offered countless opportunities to review my son’s existing skills and even hone some new ones – even though the main focus of our trip was most definitely to have fun! He honed his geography and map-reading skills along the way, practiced math by calculating our estimated travel time and miles per gallon, and took in some history and social studies at the High Desert Museum near Bend. And of course, reading is a daily staple for all of us. How does your family infuse your summer vacations with educational enrichment? Where are some of the most educational places you’ve traveled, and what are some of the most educational – and entertaining! – activities you’ve found along the way?
