EASILY REMEMBER YOUR TRIP: •
Make a family “treasure chest”. Decorate a big box or use an old popcorn tin. Store memorabilia from a fun outing, journals, pictures, brochures and souvenirs. Once a year, look through the “treasure chest” and reminisce. “Kids Love Travel Memories!” is an excellent travel journal and scrapbook template that your family can create (available on www.kidslovetravel.com).
