[quote=Anonymous]Yep, absolutely. Once he was old enough to have opinions and desires beyond being held and fed at certain times, he was an important voice in planning vacations. Last year his passion was minecraft/gemstones/mining. We took a couple really cool trips to places in the country where we could dig for different gems and learn about the geology of the regions. Last summer we did Costa Rica but in a way that was super kid friendly--rafting, animal focused, adventuring (but with lots of pool time and food options he likes). His current passion is baseball. This summer we are planning to go to an Oriole's game in Seattle before catching a cruise to Alaska. If I made this kid trek through Europe and look at art museums, we'd all be miserable. At 16 months old? We did whatever was easiest for us. What did we want to do that would have easy access to napping, snacking, and breaks for mom & dad. By 5, we fully took his interests into account in a way that was enjoyable for us too.[/quote]
