Time spent inside the car, airplane or any other means of transportation are often not counted as fun activities or as part of the vacation. But through creative and helpful ways, this can also be a source of so much fun and learning. Here are some tips to help you maximize the time spent in travel.
The most common way to make use of the time in travel is answering activity books. You may sit beside the child and help him/her learn from activity books. You may ask questions that will lead the kid into thinking and imagining creative ways in arriving to the answer. You may also bring some picture books and talk about it.
You can also take some children’s music with you and sing along with your child. Also teach some new songs, especially road or working songs so that it could also be a form of playing.
Instead of leaving your kid on his/her own, try also engaging him/her in some car games such as spotting objects that you can see through the window and naming trees and animals. You may also help develop your kid’s imagination and creativity by encouraging them to spot objects and animals in the clouds.
Story-telling is also a very good way to spend your time. You may tell stories or listen to your child do the talking.
These things will not only help you enjoy your travel and stay away from boredom, it will also help your child learn and think. And most importantly, it strengthens the bond you have with your child.
