Vacation with Teenagers: How to Make the Trip Great for Everyone
The teenager challenge
"Boring!" β "Do I have to?" Teens are between childhood and adulthood: too old for the kids' club, too young for the bar. The key: participation and peers.
Tip 1: Involve teens in planning
Let them co-decide. A teenager who had input is a cooperative teenager.
Tip 2: Allow freedom
Teens need autonomy. Give them time alone.
Tip 3: Book cool activities
Surfing, jet ski, climbing β action activities excite almost every teenager.
Tip 4: WiFi is not a luxury
For teens, WiFi is as important as sunscreen. Accept it.
Tip 5: Find peers
