When you’re a child, the summer vacation stretches endlessly ahead in a haze of sunshine and cool breezes. When you’re a grown up, the summer vacation starts and then – what feels like three days later – it ends and you’re ready to get back to school again. It just flies past. When you first become a parent, you think eighteen years is a long time. However, when you break it right down to the bare bones, this translates to eighteen summers with your kids. The first four are going to be with a baby and toddler, which wipes those out. The last three, your children are in their late teens and want to hang out with their friends. This means that overall, parents get only eleven summers to pack in as many memories as possible. It’s not all that many.
Summer memories that you create as a family are the ones that are treasured for a lifetime. They’re the ones that you sit around remembering years later and they’re the ones that shape your children as the people that they will one day become. For others, they need a solid and consistent plan to make sure that their summer is packed out with activities to do and places to go. Below, you’ll find five fantastic vacations to choose from to make those memories magical.
Sightseeing. City breaks for sightseeing are a very popular vacation option, with most people enjoying the chance to explore sights that are dripping in history and culture. Start pinning ideas on Pinterest together; there are no bad suggestions for where to visit, and everyone’s going to have at least one city in mind, right?
Adrenaline-Fuelled. While not everyone will be up for bungee-jumping, you can still book a vacation that is totally packed out with excitement. Theme parks, for example, are the perfect place for everyone in the family when you want to burn a little energy and have fun.
Road Trip. Taking the entire family on the road for your vacation should always be done at least once. Planning a memorable summer means travelling in style and with an abundance of Class B RV’s for sale, you can be that family that everyone envies on the road. There are so many itineraries to choose from, so choose wisely!
Nature. Going hiking, kayaking, canoeing and event something a little more high-energy like skiing can all be done in the heart of nature. Get into the mountains and hire a lodge for the week; the views alone are worth it.
Stay. Sometimes you just don’t have the budget for a proper time away, so be a tourist in your own town. Go and do activities you wouldn’t normally do and have some new experiences. There are always options!
Booking your trips for your vacation should be a fun thing to do, so take your time to choose the activities that are right for you. Eleven whole summers to make cracking memories are in your hands, what are you waiting for?
