[quote=Anonymous]Travel is fun and a cultural experience, and it was necessary to see my family abroad.We go to museums and talk about the history and current events/government. As the kids get older (young teen and a tween), we'll do even more of that. I see travel as a privilege, but definitely not a necessity by any means. I know what you mean about screens and kids having no conversational depth. It's depressing. I try to do overcome that every way I can by giving them lots to think about and prompts to discuss, but it can be a challenge! I agree that kids can learn just as much from camping trips to national parks and long hikes. Just do whatever you can and mix it up! [/quote]
