Family Traveling Planning

Question

My partner and I ask our children where they want to visit before planning a trip to get their input. How involved is your kids in planning your next family trip?

When our boys were little, we planned the location but then provided information for them to pick something to do during the trip; sometimes that was a cuisine of food or an activity/ attraction to visit.  During the trip, we would track something - types of animals we saw (including squirrel, robin, worm) or funny sayings that made us laugh.  When each boy turned 13, we allowed him to choose a location for a 1:1 trip with 1 of us; they were in charge of planning all of the activities, selecting restaurants, driving the agenda for a 3 day weekend.  The amount of input was scaled to their age (with parental input, of course).  Hope this helps!

My kids usually do not have an answer but I want them to get involved too. Where are you guys thinking of going?

Totally invested in everyone’s input when it comes to vacation. It’s amazing this topic shows  up when we were  just brainstorming about time off from work and school and our next destination!
