~ Castles fir up the
imagination and transport you into imaginary lands
~ historical re-enactment is one of the fun ideas for enhancing castle
lessonplans, unit studys on medieval life , and general studies of the
middle ages
~ haunted ones are especially fun to explore, listen out whether you can
hear the resident ghost or even see a glimpse of a spooky inhabitant

Castle
Vacation
a Perfect Family Vacation Idea |
Castle Vacations
are brilliant for girls and boys alike, from damsels in distress waiting
to be rescued by a dashing knight, to fierce dragons protecting the stronghold.
Maya loves visiting castles and when we are traveling with kids we always
check our map whether any interesting castle tours can be fitted into our
travel plans. The
English Castles Tower of London is an amazing fortress holding the crown
jewels and Maya loved exploring its endless corridors .
