One advantage to homeschooling is that we have more freedom to schedule vacations at unusual times. We like to travel when it’s not as crowded on the roads and at the sights.
September is a great month for traveling. The beaches are still warm. Most parks and museums are still open. Best of all, rates for hotels usually come down after Labor Day at the tourist spots. Well, unless you are traveling to the northeast to see the fall foliage.
Things always change from one generation to the next. My grandchildren have DVD players in the car! It sure makes trips a lot smoother. I still prefer CDs, so I can watch the scenery.
We like to take CDs with stories. Focus on the Family has their Radio Theater CDs. They are awesome and provide a great listening experience.
Beric the Briton CD
Another option is to choose a good book on CD. We like to listen to the Henty books on CD. There are two versions. Jim Hodges does an unabridged reading of several of PrestonSpeed Publications’ Henty books, while Jim Weiss dramatizes an abridged reading of several Henty titles.
I hope you have a nice vacation!
Blessings,
Harriet
