preparing kids for travel with passport pals activity books

Our friends at Passport Pals gifted us some beautiful activity books for our trip to Costa Rica. I really loved that they have two separate options for younger (5-8) and older (9-12) age groups.

These books were so great! We used them before, during and after our trip.

Here were my favorite features:

• The daily travel logs to help kids really remember all the great stuff we did

• The factual pages about local food, language and wild life

• Coloring pages

• Fun activity pages

I asked the kids their favorite part of the books and what they enjoyed. Here’s what they said:

1. Kiddo #1: The nature / sites

2. Kiddo #2: The activity pages and information about food

3. Kiddo #3: the coloring pages, animals

We are big on preparing kids for our trips to make sure they are engaged, prepared and excited. These books really helped.

If you’re heading to Costa Rica soon, be sure to grab these books. They have a number of destinations and transportation focused books too. My 3 year old really loved the aviation-themed books too!
