Edutainment – Classroom Cruising
Yet Another Way to Make Learning Fun!
Educational Travel Experiential Learning And Cultural Immersion
Providing students and families with an engaging, enriching, educational travel experience that instills a lifelong passion for learning and travel. Learn about different cultures and diversity - a unique experience for children, to learn about specific geographic locations wherever they may travel.
Time onboard will not only be fun, it will be educational too! Students learn through actual experience of seeing, walking, touching and being in educational ports of calls that serve as the kids' classroom.
Cruise lines offer complimentary programs of fun and educational activities open to all guests ages 3-17. Children are separated by appropriate age groups. Your child could learn about local customs, do cool science experiments, and make great new friends.
Kelby Carr, Feature Writer for Family Adventures, recommended traveling to educate homeschooled children in an article about the experiences of “Homeschooling While Traveling.” She said, “You don't need a rigid itinerary or an "educational" destination for it to be a learning experience. Simple exposure to new places and cultures is significant.”
As a homeschooling family, she says you have the flexibility to take your classroom anywhere. You also have the ability to use real-life incredible and diverse ways to teach your homeschooled children while traveling. She suggested you take advantage of off-peak rates – because you are able to travel anytime of the year.
Cruising offers more interesting and memorable ways to teach them.
The wonderful thing about travel is it stimulates the mind. You expose children to new experiences while seamlessly combining playtime with learning time.
Experience HISTORY, with an excursion to the Mayan Ruins in
Want to teach your kids about FINANCE? Take them to observe the exchange at a straw market. In fact, let them choose a souvenir to buy with their own money.
Animals. You can read thousands of books about dolphins, and never understand their personalities. Your child will not likely forget the names or significance of animals after Dolphin encounter or an island excursion visit to a Butterfly Farm.
Observe Architecture - This teaches children about so many things ranging from PHYSICS, to HISTORY, to ART. Visit a city and play a game of finding various architectural details in the buildings, and discuss what they mean. Point out why a column is used, both to hold up a structure and as an aesthetic detail.
Provide EMOTIONAL EDUCATION - Being exposed to various cultures and traditions is exceptionally beneficial to everyone, children and adults alike. Discuss how people talk or act differently. This is also a chance to teach them tolerance of the differences between everyone.
GEOGRAPHY. Use maps to teach. Children can learn a lot by simply helping you track your navigational progress, or determine what time you will arrive at your next port of call. It is a wonderful way to teach them about geography, and about critical thinking and problem solving.
Time for Mom and Dad
As a vacation for the whole family, cruise lines also provides quiet time for Mom and Dad. That can be during the day or night, while the kids are at their own children’s club groups.
Cruise Ships offer a variety of activities for parents and children to enjoy: the sundeck, the pool, live entertainment, theatre shows, dancing, game shows, cooking demonstrations, casino, comedy shows, dance instruction, contests and games, fine dining, day spa and fitness center and even a library! Some ships even offer ice skating, in-line skating, rock climbing, miniature golf, basketball, golf simulators, science experiments, animation painting, participate in stage performances, Q & A with Ships’ Officers, star gazing, dance classes, mask making, pottery, fish kites and/or porthole dioramas.
