Description
The kids wanted a trip to the zoo...easy enough, or so you thought! Maybe you had such a great day at the zoo, you got a yearly membership. Now how often can you go? Once a month, once every two months? What about all the other weekends and holidays? How do you create regular weekend adventures to motivate your kids, to spark their wanderlust, and want to explore and engage with the world around? Adventuring is a practice, much like yoga or your favorite sport. You can't expect to do it occasionally and be successful at it. Through regular weekend day trips, your world can open up. You can engage with local history, summit a nearby hill and enjoy an incredible view, spark curiosity at a science museum, and create a wanderlust for the world around us. We had a great day planned...but leaving the house was so much trouble! Leaving the house prepared for your adventure doesn't sound that hard. With a little planning, you can leave the house without feeling exhausted. Starting the day successfully can set the tone for the entire day. Fighting your way out of the house can create failure and stress that can ruin your adventure. How do you want to start the day? I want to take my kids to cool places...but, how do I keep my sanity along the way? Remember when getting in the car to go somewhere was exciting, even though all you had was an AM radio and each other for entertainment? Getting there can be half the fun if you keep your family engaged during the journey, and not lost in their devices. When was the last time you played punch bug? Set up a playlist with your kids. Have you tried out an audiobook or a podcast with your kids? What about a best of 80's music playlist, give the kids a music history lesson? Make the journey part of the adventure! I planned a day trip and managed to get there... but now everyone is falling apart, and I just want to go home! It can be hard to stay engaged with your adventure. We all get bored, tired, and hungry. If we know the problem points to look for, we can handle them before they become real issues. Learn to recognize potential problems with your kids, and with yourself, before they become actual issues. Learn how to diffuse a situation in stages and still feel like a successful parent and adventurer. Sometimes a slight change in venue or a little downtime is all you need to turn things around. We had a great day out, but... getting home was such a nightmare, how do I successfully end the day!?A day can go so well, that you never want it to end. But then you face exhaustion, hunger, and bedtime routines. How do we make this better? Even the most successful day out can feel like a failure when it ends with a bedtime meltdown, and this goes for parents too! We all have our occasional moments. With a little preparation, we can have a successful end to our amazing adventures. Are you looking forward to your next day out? Develop strategies for a successful adventuring practice. This book will help you get organized so you can create amazing memories with your kids on regular weekend day trips. Get ready for your next adventure. Get it now!
