Can you still travel after your kids are born? Of course you can! Family travel can be quite a challenge, but the amazing experiences and quality family time are well worth it. Your kids are only young once and now is the best time to create wonderful memories together. We’ve been traveling with our homeschooled preschooler since he was 3 months old, and we want to inspire other families to travel too. If we can do it, you can do it! What are you waiting for?
