Who doesn’t need a break from school? I know my kids do because we are strict during the school week: No TV, only homework and after school activities. So, naturally, they want and deserve a break from the norm. No matter where your destination, it’s nice to have a change of scenery. And, more than likely, there is plenty of fun waiting for you. Don’t forget, you don’t have to travel far for kids to have a good time! Voyager avec bébé
