Traveling is prime time for family bonding. While it brings out both the best and the worst in everyone, going on a trip is, by far, the best way to bring the family closer. Schools out for the kids, so file for your vacation from work and get ready to create some of the most enjoyable and fun-filled memories under the sun, on the shore, or among tall pine trees. Summer is when the kids can try all the activities they otherwise can’t while buried in books so make sure they can swim, ride horses, pick flowers, eat out -of-town delicacies to their heart’s content.
Get everyone involved at every stage of your summer vacation- from planning the trip to arranging photos in the post-vacation family album. At the planning stage, assigning a role for each family member will make everyone feel important and crucial to the success and fun of the big summer out-of-town event. Get ate to make sure you’ve got enough rolls of film to document every memorable moment or site, and remind kuya that he’s in charge of counting all the bags at every stop. The little ones will find utter joy in making sure that the family is well-stocked with munchies – whether packed into the car on a road trip, or in hand –carried bags if you need to get on a plane.
Needless to say, the vacation itself will weave plenty of memories for the family, and bonding will continue long after you’ve unpacked back home. While making the family album, get everyone to contribute a line about the photo and scribble it on a piece of white sticker at the bottom of each picture. Working on the album will bring back all the fun-horsing around, eating mounds of seafood , snorkelling , and more eating-and will get everyone excited and looking forward to the next big summer getaway.
