Big Fun: Travel with Grandchildren

Kids have a way of making even familiar places and activities seem new. Maybe that's why travel with grandchildren is so popular.

I received a letter recently from a grandfather named Jim who feels very out of touch with his grandchildren. Jim's son is divorced and the kids moved across the country, so even Dad doesn't see them as often as he'd like. And Jim said he feels lucky to see them once a year.

Jim has been invited to join the kids and their father for a first-ever extended vacation, and he wants to make the trip memorable and fun for everyone.

Are you, like Jim, planning a getaway with your grandchildren? These 10 tips for travel with grandchildren will help you plan a travel adventure that that everyone can enjoy--while you create memories that last a lifetime.
