We homeschool our two neurodiverse boys and our caravan is our haven. We don’t go away as often as you as it’s a major undertaking every time but having our familiar bolthole enables the kids to explore unfamiliar places. Next week we’re off to London to do the museums for eldest but staying on a working farm for youngest :-) We’ve been all over the country and had some wonderful adventures over the years - it’s nice for them to link their learning with a real experience. We’ve seen glacial valleys and Tudor houses, visited cathedrals and ancient standing stones. They always have something to say about our adventures and reconnect with them every time that element of learning comes up.
Catherine, that's so cool! I can imagine the caravan as a familiar home from home giving a lot of comfort and a little more predictability to your adventures for your boys. I also love it when the kids reconnect with our adventures and weave it into new learning, true aha! moments. Thanks for sharing, I loves hearing about your travels!
More please!! We are dreaming of one day exploring our big beautiful country in a retro van. It's still only a dream for us at this stage but I'm so keen to hear all about your family's travelling adventures, the highs, the lows, the nuts and bolts. I love how you guys schedule all your mini trips for the year too! 💛
How exciting Stephanie! That dream sounds amazing. We would love to extend our trips abroad next year.....not sure our caravan will hold up to it at this rate! Thanks for your feedback, I really appreciate it and value your thoughts.
The views from your hike are beautiful! Your caravan looks so cosy too. I've got such fond memories of visiting my Great Auntie and Uncle at campsites in Aberporth and Malmesbury when I was a child. X

Needed this as I look at our very unloved caravan which we are hoping to begin to use this year!!
Yes! Dust her off, spruce her up and get the adventure going!

Memories like that are priceless! And yes, that view was so lovely, especially seeing some blue sky and sunshine after a cold and grey January!
