Kids' Travel Journal (Vacation Diary, Trip Notebook)

Perfect fit for six-year-old girls while traveling

Bought this for a 2.5 week vacation in Europe and LOVED it! In addition to brief journaling each day there were fun activities to engage my little in during long car rides that will also help him remember special times on our trip. The games weren’t something I thought we’d use but they were great for occupying our drive long time! There’s even a pocket in the back to hold mementos (we mostly used it to store postcards). I also love that it had space for pre-trip planning plus post-trip activities, which helped solidify our memories. Definitely recommend this for young travelers! I think it would work well for age 4-7 with grownup help and ages 8-13 who can read and write on their own.

We took a family trip to Hawaii, and I wanted to get my six year old a travel journal that could help him document his trip and also practice writing while we were gone. I had looked at a few online and ended up choosing this one because of the high reviews, variety of "activities" and just the overall impression I got from reading about it vs others. I was really pleased with it! It is certainly great for my six year old (he reads and writes well for a Kindergartener), though I would say if your child isn't a strong writer, this might not be the greatest option...as you're paying for a prompt filled book! Certainly some Kinders and 1st grade on up would get benefit from it. It has a lot of great spaces to write about all facets of a trip. Some examples:*A page to write where are you going & who is coming with you*Trip itinerary pages*Detailed journal pages (which include "rating" happy faces and check boxes so they can rate the day)*"Top 10" page for them to write the top things they experienced*State/Location information page about interesting stuff about the place they're vacationing*Games for travelThere are certainly other things, but these were the ones my son liked the best. It was fun to help him review each day and write a sentence or two about what we did and how he felt...but certainly it could be more independent for older kids. I'd say the ideal range would be 6 to 12/13. It was a great investment and he'll have it to keep and remember forever!

Great ideas for week long visit to Grandma and Grandpa .

I got two of these travel journals for my grand kids ( in elementary school).They loved this journal. It has pages of lists of things to pack, games, & places you want to see. Pages to document where you went, what you did, what you liked. They used it for their entire trip to Hawaii and loved it. It will help them to remember special things from their trip. And for planning a trip too.

We recently traveled during the school year and my kids teachers wanted them to make a travel journal since they’d be missing some school. This journal had a nice way of showing things getting ready for the trip as well as a daily itinerary that we added in.

Since this is nothing more than a notebook with the same prompts on each page, you might as well buy a cheap blank notebook and write the prompts in yourself!

Lots of good ideas on what to write about your vacation. It is your family’s personal autobiography of their trip.
