It's Still Fun, Vacation While Learning or Learning During Vacation

The definition of vacation is synonymous with no school. And, the holidays are also identical with the trip. This simple mindset most often settles on the child's head. No wonder if the baby indirectly expect parents to plan the most memorable vacation.

As a parent, of course difficult to avoid request baby. Moreover unfortunately also let them fill the holiday without any meaningful activity. Well, here is the need to rack my brain how to fill the holiday with creative and educative way. And no less important remains fun.

A creative and educative holiday. Yes, that's two things to emphasize. Moreover, sharpening creativity and educating children should not only be done in school, but also anywhere and anytime. Included in the holidays.

Maybe as an example is to invite children closer to nature. This kind of holiday concept has long been applied artist Ine Febriyanti. "I like to invite children close to nature when it fits the holidays," he said, Saturday (03/06/2012).

Practically, Ine invites his three children to camp in the open in Sukabumi, West Java. Or take a road trip with a vehicle and stop in the areas that provide beautiful natural scenery. "I like children close to nature and that's why I encourage them to go to school in Ciganjur," explained the mother of three children.

So even with the Diva Pop Titi DJ. "Normally, I'd rather take them on a vacation to a place where kids get closer to nature, let's say take them to Bird Park and Elephant Safari so they know the birds," explained the mother of four.

Could be, Ine and Titi DJ want his baby not only interact with gadgets, computers, let alone TV. Promotional marks of the times can isolate children from the joy of exploring nature. Not to mention the activities of teaching and learning in school sometimes also restrict children associate with nature.

This is what concerns Richard Louv. In his book Last Child in The Woods: Saving Our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder, Richard writes how the lives of children who are far from nature will harm physical health, mental, and inhibit creativity. This condition is called Nature Deficit Disorder aka nature deficit disorder.

This situation also arrested a number of travel agents. They offer many school holiday package packages with educational tour themes. If there is no plan out of town, can listen to the offer of Dolphin Ecotourism who designed tour packages Hawthorn Turtle Conservation Program semi-natural and natural in the Thousand Islands National Park (TNKpS).

One of the activities is to see directly and touched the turtle (tukik). It can also release turtles. Release done in the morning or before sunset with a clean beach condition from the garbage.

As for those planning out of town, can observe the tour package from Lombok Network Holidays which offers Rinjani Trek five days and four nights via Sembalun. This tour package presents the experience of climbing Mount Rinjani.
