Colorful northern lights and intricate mayan architecture styles are more than just beautiful sights\u2013there\u2019s plenty your kids can learn from them!<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Mother
Dive into colorful experiences!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Who says the joy of learning has to stop in the classroom? That\u2019s right! Taking your kids around the world can be a great way to expand their horizons\u2013and their minds!<\/p>\n

From the depths of jungles to the mysteries of space, we\u2019ll take you through some of the best destinations that both excite and educate. And, we\u2019ll even share some fun facts for kids along the way!<\/p>\n

\"Panoramic,
The dancing northern lights are unforgettable sight.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Marvel at the wonders of chemistry and astronomy through the northern lights<\/b><\/p>\n

World Space Week, an international celebration of space education and science, comes around in October. What better way to celebrate it with your kids than showing them the astronomical beauty of the northern lights?<\/span><\/p>\n

The northern lights (or aurora borealis) take place when charged particles from the sun enter the atmosphere, causing pulsating shades of green, violet, and red in the sky. Seeing this happen in-person is an unforgettable way to teach your kids about chemistry in its most natural form.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fun fact:\u00a0Ancient Nordics saw the northern lights as a gateway to Valhalla.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The northern lights are best seen in colder climates <\/span>throughout the fall<\/span><\/a>. That\u2019s why <\/span>family-friendly accommodations to places like Alaska<\/span><\/a> are a great way for kids to get that experience without the harsh travel.<\/span><\/p>\n

Speaking of night skies, why not also enjoy one of mankind’s oldest pastimes and stargaze with your kids? Outline constellations with them, tell them stories, and they\u2019ll get a great feel for just how fun science can be.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Rock
The ancient Tanum Rock Carvings depict humans, weapons, animals, and more!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Explore historic civilizations<\/b><\/p>\n

From movies to history docs, vikings are a popular subject these days. But why not skip the screen and walk in their footsteps instead? Sweden has <\/span>a storied history<\/span><\/a> of art, religions, languages, and cultures dating as far back as 8000-6000 BC!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Just an hour from <\/span>Gothenburg<\/span><\/a>, the Vitlycke Museum takes you through the country\u2019s Bronze Age. There, you\u2019ll find the Tanum Rock Carvings, a UNESCO World Heritage site that contains over tens of thousands of images that reveal the rich life and beliefs of a 3000-year-old culture. And you can participate in craft exhibitions, bronze casting, and even bow-and-arrow shooting!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Famous
The Lanai island of Hawaii is home to famous red lava rock cliffs.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

If you\u2019re up for a more tropical setting, Hawaii has plenty to offer besides golden beaches.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Head to Kaunolu Village for both spectacular views and rich history. Nine miles from <\/span>Ma<\/span><\/a>ui<\/span><\/a>, Kaunolu is now an archaeological site featuring the largest surviving ruins of a prehistoric Hawaiian village. Once a center for religion and story-telling, the village is still considered a sacred place. It\u2019s the perfect way to gain deeper respect and insight of a land that is so much more than a tourist destination.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fun fact: Kaunolu was a favorite fishing spot of King Kamehameha I.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Sea
Kids will love swimming among colorful ocean friends!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Discover Earth\u2019s massive biodiversity in jungles and reefs<\/b><\/p>\n

From big wild cats to tiny songbirds, children <\/span>love<\/span><\/i> animals. And if you have kids, chances are you’ve visited a local zoo with them. So why not make it even more fun and dive into jungles and reefs that teem<\/span> with animal life?<\/span><\/p>\n

Set sail to <\/span>Belize<\/span><\/a> for both land and sea safari shore excursions. A wildlife riverboat safari on the historic Belize River will leave kids in awe at the sight of monkeys, manatees, dolphins, and colorful tropical birds. Afterwards, you can take them to unique animal sanctuaries you can\u2019t find back home\u2013like the world\u2019s only jaguar preserve!<\/span><\/p>\n

Off land, Belize offers over 500 species of marine life like turtles and manta rays that you and your family can experience <\/span>while snorkeling<\/span><\/a>. The country, after all, is home to the second largest barrier reef in the world!<\/span><\/p>\n

The first largest? It\u2019s none other than Australia\u2019s famous Great Barrier Reef! Traveling through <\/span>Cairns, Queensland<\/span><\/a> will get you there, where over 25% of all known marine species live.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fun fact<\/span>: The Great Barrier Reef is so big, it can be seen from the moon!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Experiencing vast, colorful wildlife is the perfect way to expand your child\u2019s love for animals. Plus, it can teach them incredible values like conservation to keep these places thriving, healthy, and beautiful to experience.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Colorful
