Benefits of traveling with children

There are many benefits to traveling with children. Parents should take their children to travel more often so that they can see more things. Here I will introduce to you the benefits of traveling with children!

Advantages of traveling with children

1. Cultivate children’s cognitive abilities. Children have been curious about the outside world since they were born. They will pay very careful attention to and explore the sounds, colors, shapes, objects and other things around them. Through bit by bit exploration, they acquire various skills that humans possess in daily life, such as speaking, thinking, walking, etc. Children are just a blank sheet of paper. Although they are still young, their minds are very active and their observation skills are very strong. The detail of their exploration of the world is beyond our imagination. Taking your children with you on a trip will break the limited space for your children to grow. Your children will grow up very well during the trip.

2. Exercise children’s language skills. A very important part of a child's survival skills is the ability to acquire language. In the process of learning English, our most real feeling is that learning a language requires a language environment. Whether children are babbling or have mastered the basic language foundation, during the journey, children are exposed to various languages ????from all over the world. Language is a representation of thinking. It is impossible for children to learn the language of other places immediately, but at least it allows them to know that in addition to Mandarin and the dialect of their hometown, there are many other interesting languages ????in the world.

3. It will not increase the cost burden. Traveling with children will not add too much cost burden to adults’ travel. Why? First of all, from the perspective of transportation, children can enjoy preferential prices or even free rides on airplanes, buses and other means of transportation. Secondly, from the perspective of accommodation, the younger the children are, before they are independent, they can live in the same room and the same bed with their parents without considering any additional accommodation costs. In terms of tickets, many parks and amusement parks have preferential policies for children. For theme parks like Disney, admission is free for children under 2 years old.

4. Parents and children grow up together. One of the important reasons why parents don’t want to take their children on a trip is because taking them out will make the parents feel tired. Because children have to bring a lot of things with them when traveling. During the trip, children have limited physical strength, so they spend more time sleeping and less time playing. They also inevitably cry and disturb adults' emotions. However, children are a very important part of adults' lives. , what a pity it would be if we were busy with our careers and rushing on the road every day, but ignored the growth of our children, and our children are growing all the time. If we miss it, we will have no chance to make up for it.

The best times are on the road, and those times become better because of the participation of family and friends! Bring your children with you and enjoy the scenery along the way as a family, enjoying another happy time on the road together.

Benefits of taking children to travel

In the natural environment, the nature of parents and children is well released,* ** Enhance parent-child bonding through fun and play, while increasing communication and interaction skills with other partners to better adapt to group life.

When traveling, parents and children form a small group, caring and caring for each other, which increases family bonding. Xinxin went to Hangzhou with us last summer. He was a little uncomfortable with being in a small group of only three people. But this time we went to Shaoxing, he has begun to enjoy and participate in our family's trip. When her mother was tired, he even took the initiative to tell her a little joke.

Intellectual development (IQ)

Children are full of curiosity about everything in a strange environment, such as green trees, green grass, red flowers, mountains and rivers, strangers, and animals. , full of challenges for children who are full of curiosity. The colorful nature stimulates children's sense organs. They watch, listen, touch, ask, and even taste with interest. In short, the natural environment can exercise children's natural observation ability, attention, memory, description ability and independent thinking ability.

Traveling to some cities with historical monuments is a very good opportunity for children to experience history. During my trip to Shaoxing this time, I told Xinxin the story of Lantingxu and explained to him what the Qu Shui Shang was. Because of the scene of the Orchid Pavilion's meandering water drinking cup, he quickly understood the scene of ancient gatherings.

Physical Development

Playing in the natural environment is very pleasing to the eye. Beautiful scenery can inspire people's mood, and children become excited and active in the beautiful nature. Like this time climbing the Tomb of Dayu, Xinxin showed good physical fitness! Mountain climbing has a good effect on the development and metabolism of muscles, bones, intestines, respiratory and other systems, and improves children's adaptability to the external environment and disease resistance. ability.

Children are born with "inner vitality" or "inner potential". This vitality is active, active, developing, and has endless power. The task of education is to stimulate and promote children's "inner potential" and enable it to develop naturally and freely.

Let children carry out language education, movement education, sensory education and moral awareness education in entertainment games and close to nature!

China has such beautiful mountains and rivers and such a splendid history. Tourism allows adults and children to They have broadened their horizons, enriched their knowledge, and exercised their ability to deal with people!

Taking our children to travel can increase their life experience, because children lack abstract understanding, so it is best to provide real experience Way. Beneficial to cognitive development. It can also expand children's interpersonal relationships, give children the opportunity to contact people outside their family, help develop interpersonal relationships, provide children with a channel to enter society, and cultivate children's habits of contact with society. Relieve the pressure on parents, travel with other children, and cultivate relationships. Don't let other children think that this child is the reason why they can't go out to play together. The parents are taking care of him and have no time to pay attention to them.

Children will definitely be very resistant at first and just want to play at home. Because children are highly stubborn and suffer from sensory abnormalities, they will be very resistant. However, if you choose to give up, you may not be able to go on vacation for the rest of your life, because you have to think about your child at any time, fearing that he may have a condition that may affect your health. I can't step out anymore. Just think about it: when the child is still young, it doesn’t matter if he is crying or reacting inappropriately when he is taken out, because he is a child and others can accept it. Is it because of children? It is inevitable that they will be naughty and disobedient. Lying on the ground and rolling around, nestling on the ground and not moving. You were able to carry him on your back, so when you went out as a child, his misbehavior was ignored. Take him out while he is still young and he will get used to it. Children will also make progress and will not be out of touch with society. When he grows up, you will have a chance to breathe, your family's life will not be affected by your child, and your quality of life will be better. In addition, the child did not develop the habit of going out when he was a child. When he grows up, his motivation to go out is very low. Secondly, the child's inappropriate behavior will be highlighted because he has grown up and still cries and loses his temper (other people view) It’s so embarrassing! Both parents and children will be very frustrated.

Our children inherently need repeated exercises to learn or develop some habits. Therefore, when the child is young and inappropriate behavior is ignored, good habits should be developed to correct the strange behavior, which will have a great impact on the child's future life. Parents will feel much more relaxed. So now we can go play whenever we want and go out whenever we want without disrupting our plans. Children also develop a cheerful attitude and frustration tolerance because they are accustomed to contact with the outside world.

So while the children are still young, they must take this difficult first step.
