"Wow! This was exactly what I needed to get my head on straight for making field trips the priority they should be. We don’t take advantage of the freedom homeschooling offers - unless I start thinking like this! Here’s to an amazing school year!"

My work as a travel planner has given us many opportunities for family travel. Every time my kids went on a work trip with me, I noticed their reading, math, and memorization skills improved. Traveling with the kids made it seem like school work was effortless but at home, we were always bogged down with struggles.
It didn't take long for me to put two and two together on why the kids excelled on the road but struggled at home. The rich exposure to hands-ons learning they were getting on the road gave them a deeper understanding of the materials. History became tangibly alive, math had a purpose, science was more than untouchable magic, and reading wasn't the only access to the outside world. School subjects became linked in an understandable way and my kids were inspired to create a compelling future.
During the last 7 years of homeschooling, we have perfected how to add real exploration to our curriculums. Travel doesn't just improve the education of my children. It will change the way your students homeschool too.
"Now I have a comprehensive plan for squeezing in all the fun stuff we want to do for the school year."

As a travel planner for 13 years, I know how complicated it can be to "get out the door". This planner is the exact model I have used to help my own children explore the world around them.
Hand's-on learning works for all learning types.
Our guide and planner isn't just for travel and vacations (though those are great ways to explore and learn). There are lots of great ways to explore locally. Use Google to help your local search and our planner to put it into action.
My favorite part of homeschooling is challenging my children to think about or do something new. Adventures take more time and therefore a little more planning.
You can plan your adventures around anything that works for your family. Stay within the comfort zone and budget of your family.
Tip: If you don't know where to start... I like rope courses and ziplines.
Our limited-time offer is priced at $39. That's a 50% savings over our regular price of $80.
