Traveling and exploring the world has always been a big priority for my husband and me.  Once Anya came along, we probably slowed down our travels a bit but didn’t let having a baby stop us from exploring with her.  Up till now she was a bit young to appreciate and get involved in the different countries she’s been to but now that she’s 5, it’s the perfect age to encourage her to decide on some things she would like to see and do whenever we go somewhere. 

I’m not the best at finding kids activities in new places so when I came across these ZigZag city guides for kids, I thought they would be perfect to help us make our holidays a bit more kid-friendly and to help Anya get more interested.  The guides come as a set of cards with a map and some postcards, all with the cutest illustrations.  They feature Zig and Zag, two sweet characters who guide you through the city.  At the moment, there are only 4 cities on offer but they are adding more to their collection including a London guide which is due out in April this year.  We’re hoping to go to New York later this year so if we do, I plan to start with that guide and will of course let you know how we get on.
