My husband and I have 4 kids... 3 boys and then our girl. We homeschool them all and travel when possible. We just started letterboxing and are finding ourselves a little obsessed with it.

Walking the meadows of Yosemite with my family. The quiet, the sparkling water, the rustling grasses, and a dip in the river made for an amazing day.
Worst Travel Moment With My Kids:
Anytime throw up is involved. Especially when one kid triggers another. And when we are in the car. And when they choose to use the box that is holding all their library books and toys.

Best kid friendly hikes in Grant Grove Kings Canyon
In the Grant Grove area of Kings Canyon National Park, there are several great hikes that families will enjoy. Most have minimal elevation change and range from 1-4 miles in length.
The Grant Grove area is located on Highway 180 in Kings Canyon National Park. Elevation is 6-7,000 feet. When driving east on Highway 180, turn left at the Wye after entering the park at the Big Stump Entrance Station.
