Thanks everyone! This stuff is perfect! Kiddos will be 3 and 5 so definitely old enough to understand and get excited about seeing this stuff </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-idea-for-kids#post-2848322 Mon, 01 Oct 2018 08:39:48 +0000 looch 2848322@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If it were me, I'd identify the sights that we were going to be seeing and then get some things related to that.</p> <p>My son is 7 and he already has the kit, but I would look for a lego kit of some of the sites. There's a red double decker bus, for example, that takes about 20 minutes to build.</p> <p>Amazon has a ton of stuff, including a telephone booth bank...that might be fun too, so they can save up to buy something while they are visiting.</p> <p>Then, I'd also get a kids travel journal and some scrapbook stickers specific to London. I might also get a union jack tee shirt, my son goes nuts for stuff like that. There's a ton of stuff out there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-idea-for-kids#post-2848278 Sun, 30 Sep 2018 19:29:53 +0000 mrsbookworm 2848278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have this book that’s great for introducing London. There’s also a Paris and New York version. </p> [attach=3376/18/pfw9du.337x600.B65CB557-4DB7-490E-A259-C958453F7FB1.png] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-idea-for-kids#post-2848143 Sat, 29 Sep 2018 20:03:37 +0000 lady baltimore 2848143@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How old are your LOs? I would think that books set in London should help. "Thames Doesn't Rhyme With James" by Paula Danzinger might be fun to read together if they are a little older, and then you could plan to visit some of the sites mentioned in the book. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-idea-for-kids#post-2848120 Sat, 29 Sep 2018 18:01:22 +0000 misolee 2848120@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We usually just hit up the library for books on the country and look over the pictures. </p> <p>I’ve also seen Usborne books with some countries. There’s a Kitty Cat series where the kitty travels and we have the France one. I think they might have London. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-idea-for-kids#post-2848075 Sat, 29 Sep 2018 11:09:17 +0000 gotkimchi 2848075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Are there any books or games to get kids excited for a destination? I’m thinking of going to London and would love a workbook or treasure hunt or something for the kids to participate in to get the excited about the sightseeing </p>
