Family Vacation

Planning a Family Vacation
Planning a family vacation can be fun. It is a time that the
whole family can work together in deciding where to go. It is
important to take family vacations and make memories that would last a
life time.
Plan in advance, so that everyone can plan. A year in advance
is the best, but may work at 6 months. Try to bring the
family to a central meeting place that everyone enjoys or may enjoy.
You probably know the whole family's preferences, so it should be
easier to figure out. Try not to do vacations at your parents
house, as they need a break from their homes as well. Make
the vacation short,(a week or less) as inexpensive as possible, and try
different things to keep it interesting. Do some homework on family
schedules and plan the time most can make it. It is
sometimes
impossible for all to make it and if you do this on a yearly basis
everyone will eventually be able to see each other at least every
couple of years. Holidays are the best times to try and plan
for usually because most people are off of work at those
times. If you can't do holidays other occasions like
anniversary's and birthdays. Have at least one other family
member help make plans, so that the "burden" is not on one
person. One could be in charge and delegate some other things
to do, like meal planning, room reservations, activities to do in the
area etc. Make sure that there is a variety of choices, but
not too many as to get bogged down. Having others help plan
will also help get enthusiasm going. There are many fun
things to do that are economical such as, camping, old time
threshing shows, Civil and Revolutionary War re-enactments, Back to
50's car shows, local museums, orchards, parks, zoos, etc.
These can also be very educational besides being
fun.
It is important to get together with family because family is where you
get your values from and is a great way to pass those on to the next
generation. Besides, you never know where life is going to
take you or a family member and you will be happy you had that last
time together. It is also important to teach your children
the value of being together with your family as well as being there for
them when the need arises. All the efforts of getting together will be
worth the effort in the end.
