We always travelled a lot with the kids. And a lot before the kids. I think that having kids gives people a perfect excuse not to do things, like travel, that maybe they never liked to do in the first place. Most people who really enjoy it, or who think it is very important for whatever reason, just do it and don’t give it that much thought. Yes, it’s hard work travelling with kids, but the alternative is (a) to not let them and our families get to know each other and (b) for us not to get to do the exploring that we love. Totally worth that hard work.

Got no choice so I don't think about it much. Just found this cool blog too - Family Travel.

I’ve noticed huge leaps in language during and after trips too. I thought it was because my son only had to speak one language while we’re away while at home he has to speak three. Nice to know we’re not alone.

I think travel is a very valuable experience for the whole family! Even the youngest child picks up new information and experiences. We have noticed developmental growth spurts in our children after each trip – usually more talking, but it was pretty fun when our littlest took her first steps in a hotel in Boston!
