See more: family<\/a> \u2013 kids<\/a><\/p>\n

I love travelling with my kids (seven and nine years old)! To keep things fun, I usually plan for only one or two sightseeing visits a day and then I let them choose something we can do or see together.<\/p>\n

In order to keep them engaged during sightseeing, I set out photo challenges for them to complete with their own little iPod Touch that has a camera. On occasion, my daughter will opt to carry a slightly larger point and shoot camera. These challenges can be as simple as take 15 different photos, five of which can be \u201cselfies\u201d showing the architecture of the building we are at. Of course, the \u201cselfies\u201d are always their favourites.<\/p>\n

I usually keep our sightseeing visits short and try to find something to engage them while we are there. We also take loads of breaks, stopping for tea or drinks throughout the day. It is nice because it forces me to slow down and enjoy this precious time we have together.<\/p>\n
