Who we are?

I

’m sure you would agree that traveling with kids can be fun—but certainly challenging and frustrating at times …

As a passionate traveler who refused to give up traveling after starting a family, I continued to travel with my kids, trying to have as much fun as possible while maximizing the opportunity to enhance their knowledge—always trying to get them to take in a little more than just what they saw in front of them …

Well, this was not an easy task! Being a Learning Solutions Expert in a significant global corporation, I kept asking myself, What am I doing wrong? I simply had to find a better way. So I started to develop unique resources, content, and solutions for my kids.

Soon I started sharing my materials and my knowledge with other parents and friends from all over the world. In return, I received tremendous feedback and a great gift— other parents started to contribute their knowledge, and they shared my “activities” with their friends … The result was the birth of the Kids’ Travel Guide series and the FlyingKids group.

Kids’ Travel Guide Series

E

specially designed for kids! Unique travel guides and activity books in one, the Kids’ Travel Guides are the fun way to discover new places around the world! The interactive guidebooks tell your kids everything they need to know about the country or city you plan to visit. From packing at home to seeing the sights during the trip, Leonardo—the kids’ tour guide— makes it interesting with fun facts, “juicy” information, quizzes, special tasks, kids’ diary, and coloring pages. And when the kids return home, the book will become a souvenir of their trip that they can treasure for a lifetime.

Italy: Ever wondered

why Rome is known as the Eternal City? Or how Giotti became the official painter for the Pope?

Why do people throw a coin into Trevi Fountain, and why does the Leaning Tower of Pisa lean?

Thailand: Money

in Thailand is called the Thai baht, but how much is the baht worth in your country’s money? Whose picture is never allowed on Thai money? Can you guess why? Why can you never go hungry in Thailand?

The UK: Grammar might

be dull, but when you teach the meaning of unusual sayings and words, UK English is a delight. And between England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales, there are often many names for the same thing—an example: bap, batch, cab, barm, muffin, bridie, rowie, stottie, and oggie all mean the same thing!

Kids’ Travel Guides – City

F

ocuses on a specific city and the main attractions kids must visit and get to know. Provides background information on the city: its relevant history, how it looks, its transportation system, and many other fascinating facts.

Leonardo keeps kids interested with fun facts, challenging tasks, special tips, and exciting quizzes at every site they visit.

Spain: What book is

considered to be the world’s first novel? Did you know the author was in the Spanish navy and was captured and held for ransom by pirates?

Who is Ratoncito Pérez and why do Spanish kids get excited to see what he brings?

Paris: What does Paris

look like? How did Paris get its name? Can the kids help Leonardo find the names of the streets around the Arch of Triumph? How tall is the Eiffel Tower, and why was it built? What are some secrets about the Notre-Dame Cathedral?

New York City:

What’s so special about New York City, and how did it become one of the most important cities in the world? So many fun things to do in NYC: Central Park, the wonders of the Met (yes, even for kids!), and many more famous sights.
