Parent's information
Dear Parents,
This site can help make trips you plan to take with your children far more profound, educational, and enjoyable than you could possibly have imagined!
Did you ever think that your child would know all about the famous artists who lived in the country you're visiting for the summer, and even share funny stories about the country’s history? Did you ever imagine that your trip abroad could become the most entertaining lesson on geography, history, art and culture that your child has ever experienced? Encourage your child to visit the site, and experience the true joy of taking your children on a trip abroad.
Welcome to GoKids – a personal online tour guide for children and teens who are planning to go on a trip or sightseeing expedition in Israel, or who would like to learn more about a particular country before taking a trip abroad.
GoKids provides information on culture, history, the arts, and geography, as well as possible attractions and recreational activities in countless countries and tourist sites across the globe, all with the help of humor, video clips, allegories, and fables, all explained in an way that kids and teens love and appreciate. The smooth, flowing language and occasional jokes never detract from the site’s historical accuracy and in-depth cultural expertise.
On the website, children can read all about the travel experiences of other kids at various tourist sites, contact children from all across the globe, and share their experiences before and after a particular trip.
GoKids is the ideal tool to help make travel experiences in Israel and abroad more meaningful for children and teens, enriching their knowledge of the place that they are about to visit. The website also serves to help children feel more involved in the trip, as they help to plan possible destinations, and view the experience in an entirely different, deeper, and more comprehensive fashion.
The site is targeted at young people aged 8-16, and is designed for their independent use.
As parents, you can help your children by reading pages on the site along with them, or by printing out pages so that children can use them as a booklet of sorts, and read through them while traveling.
