Have you ever thought about the benefits every member of a family receives simply by getting away on a group vacation? Family holidays may require elaborate planning, but from the moment everyone arrives at the designated destination, something transformative happens. For starters, there are no work or social agendas to distract adults. From the youngest child to the most senior member of your tribe, each family member benefits in ways you may never have thought about.
Psychologists studying the family holiday have proven that while multi-generational groups are diverse, a group getaway strengthens relationship bonds and delivers myriad benefits to each family member:
- Families experience less stress when vacationing together, according to a Journal of Family Psychology study.
- Bonding opportunities abound as kids learn to be adaptable, self-reliant, and independent.
- Travel makes kids smarter and boosts their social, physical, and cognitive growth.
- Family travel expands a child’s social awareness, heightening compassion and empathy.
- The more exotic the destination, the likelier children develop heightened self-confidence.
- With multiple adults in a travel party, shared responsibilities take the pressure off everyone!
