If cost is a factor preventing you and your family from taking a vacation, you might want to consider taking one right at home. Many of us live within reasonable distance to museums, campgrounds, historic sites, and beautiful state parks. You might be surprised at what you find in your own local area. Do some research in your area to find free or low cost activities and sites to visit. Schedule something for each day of the week, even if it's just a park visit for a picnic. Some areas have local public beaches. Plan an outing at a local public beach, or visit historical sites. Many of these are free, educational, and fun for parents and kids. You can even plan activities at home just as if you were at an exotic vacation spot. Have a different theme for each day.
These themed days will take some imagination and a little work, but will be loads of fun for everyone. Half the fun will be in the creation, so let everyone pitch in. With a little imagination and creativity you can have a wonderful vacation right in your own backyard. You may even have more fun than actually being in another part of the world!
