An Educational Trip through Route 66
Each year my family and I always try to take a vacation together. There are many different places to go to, but I don’t want our trips to be ordinary. I also don’t want to be filling my children with days of fun that they can’t learn from. We always make it a point to visit a place that has a lot that they can learn about.
This year we were trying to think about where to go and one of our first choices was a road trip on the Mother Road. This historic scene has so much to offer especially in terms of learning about the past. I know that the kids will enjoy going through the different tourist traps that are still present. For sure my husband will be looking forward to eating at the grease pots and I can’t wait to revisit the Native American villages and settlements there.
When it comes to finding all these different places and providing information, I’m not too sure how well I’ll do. It’s a good thing that there are many different Route 66 tours that are offered. I’ve heard that some parts of the road end up right in neighborhoods and unexpected places. I really don’t want to be wasting time finding our way around. What’s more, I’m sure that the guides will be able to give my children all the details about the different places; not to mention answer all their questions!
I’m really looking forward to going on this road trip. I’m not too sure if the kids are half as excited as I am, after all what can they get our of visitng an old road? Well they are surely going to be in for a big surprise. I thought that I would give them a little booster to get them interested in the trip and the place a little bit more. I’ll be making them watch that Disney cartoon that features cars on Route 66 itself. I know that they’ve already wathed this before and enjoyed it. This time I’ll try to give them bits and pieces of information. I’m sure that this will be enough to get them excited about seeing the place in person.
