Children suffered from the pandemic, especially from being forbidden to be outside. Many grown-ups are witnessing fears of teenagers to be outside home, and it does not seem easy to help with such anxieties. It seems problematic to erase from one’s childhood or teenage years the possibilities to be outside and to enjoy a good time. Life in urban areas or concerns about letting children roaming free represent an hindrance. It is necessary for the development of children to be able to decide for themselves what they are going to do. Children need to explore by themselves, with no supervision, and it will contribute to make them more imaginative and creative adults.
What is the best place to let children do what they want on holidays?
When travelling to find somewhere to stay on holidays, parents might get truly worried about their destination. Will they be able to organize everything to make the children happy? One good destination among others is the Village des Cigales located in France. If you wish to spend holidays in France and would prefer to explore other regions, you may have a look on several websites such as FranceComfort with a selection of holiday parks. A holiday park has several advantages in comparison with renting a house anywhere:
- everything is built for holidaymakers with children
- there are sports facilities, including swimming pools
- there are activities for children and teenagers.
If you are staying in a village in the French countryside, it will not be organized to let children walk around. Cars are everywhere and traffic is dense. If you are staying at a holiday park, drivers will be under the obligation to drive safely and some areas might even be car free. Thus, you will be able to entitle some autonomy to your children, and they will enjoy this newfound freedom. The sports facilities in a holiday park are thought for children of any age and teenagers. This will provide as well a great opportunity to make new friends, and to speak possibly other languages! The activities correspond to the passions and demands of the children and teenagers. The facilities are well maintained, there are a lot of obligations to be respected for the management!
The proximity is another great advantage. No need to rush by car to be on time somewhere, during holidays, and in fact reproducing all the stress already experienced all year long! Furthermore, the restaurants or the equipment of the lodgings in the kitchen provides for a vast array of menus. This is a great opportunity to help children to discover what they are enjoying eating, with no stress or no fuss. Food market in France are quite a show, and this provides the p=opportunity to teach to teenagers about to leave the nest to study and live by themselves how to buy ingredients to cook healthy dishes. French food culture for every day is easy to learn and the French people hate to spend a fortune for their everyday meals. So, pleasure, education, and discovery are all intertwined!
