The travel these kids do is ridiculous. That’s what books are for. Let them get a job and take a trip. In the meantime....look at the travel books....plenty of pictures and a hell of a lot more information.
I agree. Most kids would be as happy to just go to a hotel with a pool that has a slide. I know parents get all crazy and worried that their kid is going to miss out but literally 2 days after kids get back they forget everything other than if the talked to a cute girl/guy. Maybe look for 1-2 day trips/adventures for your child with you along.
