    Guest Spot: Elyse from Kauffman Tànxiǎn 探险 Blog Offers Her Advice on Traveling with Kids

    July 25, 2017 /

    We got split reactions from everyone. It was either "you're crazy, I could never do that" or "that's amazing! I wish I could do something Ike that!" The truth is. You CAN do it. ANYONE can. I promise. Before you start rolling your eyes and stop reading, hear me out. Sure, it takes some serious planning and patience, but it's totally worth it. And, let's be clear.

    Tried, True, and Cheap Ways to Make Road Trips with Young Children Entertaining (For Them) and Relaxing (For You)

    May 17, 2017 /

    Rocking Your Way through Airport Security with Your Littles

    October 20, 2016 /

    Airport security is a drag. There’s no way around it. It is surrounded in anxiety and annoyance, a hotbed of frustration. But with a bit of planning and a decent amount of confidence, it doesn’t mean your trip has to begin with those frustrations too.

They say it's all in what you do in the off season They say it's all in what you do in the off season. Travel tip for kids? Bring the ball. The football, the soccer ball, the basketball. Whatever it needs to be, bring it. To have a passion to retreat to is such a relief after a day of travel and exploring, especially if your dad has booked you 80000 hours of tours to crusty dusty musty places.

It was supposed to be a vacation, not a trip. So w It was supposed to be a vacation, not a trip. So we turned ourselves into boneless blobs that transitioned from pool to poolside and back again. Except this day. This day we went out to explore and stopped at a cenote to swim. Middle One gave it his full approval and has plans to find more the next opportunity he gets. Little discoveries count as much as big ones.

39/50: Kentucky. We spent the day with the NPS and 39/50: Kentucky. We spent the day with the NPS and couldn't have been happier. Mammoth Caves are unlike any of the other caves we've been to--they're dry and somewhat less impressive, though the cave system is huge (mammoth even). Lincoln's birthplace was a fun little stop. Worth the time.
