School-Cations
2020 has been a year of re-imagining; our calendars, our celebrations, our work spaces, our kids’ educations. We love seeing facebook and instagram posts about how our clients have re-imagined spaces in their homes to turn them into classrooms and study stations. You are all so creative! Now, can you re-imagine what your vacation can look like while your children continue their distance learning this year? When will you be ready for a school-cation?
Knowledge For All Seasons
We love what our friends at The Four Seasons Punta Mita are doing! They are expanding and enhancing their Kids for All Seasons program to set up visiting families with everything they need to support their children’s distance learning. They’re calling the program, Knowledge for All Seasons. In addition to providing equipment like printers and portable chargers, they have a tech team available to help you troubleshoot 24/7 and a “screen doctor” who works poolside to clean laptops and computers. Science class in Punta Minta might include watching a sea turtle release on the beach.
Re-imagine too, what your classroom can look like. Four Seasons is creating study cabanas by their pools! Your can be outfitted with Wi-Fi, a TV monitor, headphones, a portable charger, lap pad and energizing snacks. The Punta Minta resort is also adding its own educational activities available to young vacationers so that they can feel like their on a super-fun field trip during their school-cation. Your child might study the region of Punta Mita, the origins of chocolate (xocolatl) and the culture of the indigenous Huichol people of Nayarit, Mexico. Four Seasons offers arts and culture sessions for youngsters to kites and learn folk dances, and of course, there are sports; surfing, tennis, golf, and more!
Study Cabanas
Make use of a Four Seasons family-oriented sightseeing guide of Washington D.C. while school-cationing in our nation’s capital. Visit Four Seasons private residences in Napa Valley and your children can explore grape growing with the resident Vineyard Manager or harvest heirloom tomatoes from the resort’s organic garden. Or, take the ultimate family school-cation at The Four Seasons Orlando where they can glide down the lazy river or visit their favorite theme parks between classes! These are just some of the ways our travel partners are endeavoring to enhance your school-cations. Contact us for more ideas!
