This imaginative travel activity will get children dreaming up all kinds of adventures to far-off magical lands!
Just imagine a magical traveling teapot that could whisk you anywhere you wanted–to the top of the Statue of Liberty, a land full of sugary sweet treats or a field full of summery daisies!
While you’re heading off to your travel destination, use the travel time to chat about your dream destinations, both imagined and real. Who knows where you will all end up? Older children can even write a story about their teapot travels to really express their creativity!
