Let children explore and experience these things to create a perfect and unforgettable childhood.
1. The Great Wall of China
Walking down the great wall has to be top of the list. Look over the watchtowers and see how the wall climbs and dips, snaking away into the countryside beyond.
If you and the kids are feeling particularly adventurous, have a go at sliding down the Great Wall at Mutianyu.
The kids will love it!
2. A Ranch
Children get so much more from experiences. Being able to ride a horse tops it all.
If your kids are a little older, consider also paying for horse riding lessons.
3. Wildlife park
Seeing animals in the wild is a life-affirming experience no matter your age.
There are so many wildlife parks to visit in Africa (working on a budget? Visit Yankari Game Reserve).
Kids not only get to see animals up close but also learn about the way their habitat is being threatened and what can be done to ensure a better future.
4. Museum
Look, learn, and create together with kids during fun and interactive programs at a museum.
Most children museums provide exhibits and programs to stimulate informal learning experiences for children. In contrast with traditional museums that typically have a hands-off policy regarding exhibits, children's museums feature interactive exhibits that are designed to be manipulated by children.
5. Camping
If your kids are a little older, consider doing an overnight camp-out. Rustling up food with other kids their age on an open fire and sleeping under a blanket of stars is something your kids will never forget.
