Moving Adventures: Children’s Books to Help Your Little One Cope with Moving

As a military family, we are no strangers to moving. In fact, it’s a way of life. And as we prepare for our next adventure in Japan, I’ve been thinking about the best ways we’ve helped our little ones cope with the changes that come with relocating. One of the most powerful tools in our […]

Trip Preparation with Culture Smart Guidebooks // Colombia

Homeschooling allows us to continue traveling with the littles. Each trip opens up a study of art, cuisine and culture. The prep work and lesson planning was easy to do in Europe, where I had a strong knowledge of the culture and history of places we traveled. As we plan for our next big adventure […]

Tales for Tiny Travelers // Review

This post contains affiliate links. I’m always looking for children’s books that link our travels with history.

Dutch Language Resources for Expat Children

We’ve been in the Netherlands for over two years now. The Big Little is a fluent Dutch speaker, the Middle Little is well on his way and our Little Little responds to some Dutch commands. Jeff and I still don’t speak Dutch but we can read and understand enough to manage life. We decided very […]

After traveling, reading is our favorite activity. We recently discovered the iGo Stories travel book series. These personalized books place your child in the middle of a traveling adventure full of famous landmarks. My Big Little is completely obsessed with London. The “Adventures in London” book was the perfect fit for him. You start […]

The Illustrated Book of Sayings // Book Review & Giveaway

“Oh! You’ve got chicken skin” says another mother to me on the school playground. I stare at her blankly. Turns out she is talking about my goosebumps and thinks I should have worn my jacket. Later, I’m using Google Translate to help me understand a WhatsApp conversation and find the phrase “it was like an angel […]

Santa’s Beard Book // Review & Giveaway

We’ve unpacked the Christmas decorations already this season. We did not bring many of our decorations with us but the holiday books all came along. The books are able to transport us into so many fun holiday worlds, and inspire many great crafts for the littles. They are truly my most favorite thing to unpack! This year […]

This is a wonderful book to add to a travel or photo book collection. Sure, it makes a great coffee table book, but it’s so much more! As a traveler I was inspired […]
