Visit historical sites, local eateries, or small businesses. Consider visiting the tourist attractions that you never visit because you aren’t tourists. Often we overlook the things we see every day, but your own town can be a fascinating place to explore. Borrow some books from the library about pond life before you go, and take along your camera to photo-journal what you find (at the pond, not the library!).ġ0. A pond can be fascinating, particularly in the spring when you may be able to spot tadpoles, goslings, or ducklings. It was fascinating to see how the facility operated and all the products that can be made from recycled plastic – everything from park benches to clothing! If you don’t already recycle, find out how to do so where you live and let your preschoolers start helping sort your recyclables at home.ĩ. My kids and I went to a recycling center when they were young. Take your little ones to learn about fresh- and salt-water creatures.Ĩ.

Young kids tend to be fascinated by fire trucks and police cars, but they can often be intimated by firefighters and police officers in full gear. Granted, much of what most of us eat is commercially processed, but it’s good for kids to learn about other options and discover how to support local farmers.Ħ. Plus, young kids can learn about how farmers provide food for the rest of us. Farm. Domesticated animals are just as much fun to visit and learn about as wild ones.
