Activity: "My child travelled"
Social Studies
- The child learned about different cultures by experiencing new customs and traditions during the trip.

- The child developed an understanding of global citizenship and the importance of respecting diverse cultures.
- They also learned about geography and map reading skills while navigating through different locations.
Continued development can be fostered by encouraging the child to research more about the countries they visited, including their history, geography, and current events. Additionally, they can create a scrapbook or a digital presentation to document their travel experiences and share it with their peers or family members. This can enhance their storytelling skills and promote cultural exchange.
