If your kids think that primates, exotic birds, big cats, and lizards all live in zoos, it’s time to enlighten them, expand their universe, and discover how easy it is to educate them without telling them that they’re learning. Where to take your brood? Belize. This small nation is heaven for kids because “The Belize Maya Forest is part of a 38-million-acre tropical forest network…that spans Belize, northern Guatemala and southeastern Mexico,” explains Rainforest Trust scientists. It’s very kid-friendly!
Why pick Belize over other Central American nations? Because everyone speaks English, it’s safe and since it’s the size of Vermont, it’s easy to navigate. Every family member will find amazing sites and you can get from one place to another without eating up half of your vacation time–especially if you book your stay at an authentic jungle property that delivers on fun and adventures: Chan Chich Lodge .
This charming hideaway, tucked into the Belize forest, is a wonder unto itself. While kids feast their eyes on everything they encounter within this green wonderland, Mom and Dad will find themselves equally enthralled. Take a peek at this video and you’ll see what awaits–after you gather the kids so they can view this too.
Chan Chich Lodge: Where Mother Nature Hangs Out
