After visiting The Creation Museum this week, we can add Kentucky to the list of states we’ve visited before they graduate. (Oh & maybe Ohio too, if stopping for lunch there counts!)
To help them remember their time at each new place, my littles pick a postcard. We bring the postcards home, write their favorite aspect of the trip on the back of the card with their name, & add the card to their travel notebook. Each child has their own 3 ring notebook with a laminated 2 sided map with 3 ring hole punches. One side has the US and the other side has the world. Also, lots of sheet protectors with pockets perfectly sized for postcards. We keep these notebooks in our schoolroom & they really like flipping through these books to remember our various trips! They also like finding the places we’ve visited on the maps. Simple & affordable!
Great idea for keeping track of your trips! I hope I can use something like this.
