Here's a great way to get your kids excited for a summer trip! If you don't have Google Earth, download it here. Type your destination into the "fly to" window on Google Earth, and hit return. You'll see satellite images of your destination.
You can trace your trip, road by road. Show hotels and other points of interest. Get a 3D view of buildings you'll see on your trip. Involve your kids in planning the trip using this interesting and helpful tool! Make your trip come to life!
Even if you're not going on a trip this summer, Google Earth will give your children a chance to explore the world in which they live. Type in an address and see satellite images of your neighborhood! Even of your house!
