The Best Vacation Books for Kids
This blog uses affiliate links. Please read my disclosure policy.
July is almost over, so this is the last ‘hurrah!’ for vacation time before school starts back. Do you vacation in July? As homeschoolers, we actually love to vacation during the ‘off’ season, and our schedule gives us a lot of flexibility. We’d prefer to avoid the crowds, and live vicariously through others with our books in the air-conditioned comfort of home.
Whether you’re headed out on vacation, or just want to be inspired, these books are sure to provide a fun escape. We are sharing our favorites, but if you’ve got one we left off the list, be sure to let us know!
Happy reading! Bon voyage!
