3 Tips for Homeschooling on Vacation

When you rent a vacation home with Harris Vacation Rentals, it’s easy to be productive and make the best out of homeschooling. Keep reading to learn about our top tips for homeschooling on vacation! 

1. Use High-Speed Wifi

In today’s world, schooling doesn’t happen very often without the internet and technology. Nothing is more frustrating than trying to search the web, and your device won’t load. When you say with Harris Vacation Rentals, you’ll always have access to free, high-speed wifi. Some of our larger homes have two routers for added speed and efficiency. 

2. Make Your Own Field Trips

When you’re vacationing in Gulf Shores, Orange Beach, and Fort Morgan, you’re surrounded by fascinating activities and adventures. This is the perfect opportunity to get out of the house and plan your own unique field trips. In fact, your whole vacation is essentially one long field trip! Hop on a boat and learn about our area’s ecosystems and wildlife on a Dolphin Cruise. Or, get up close and personal with the environment with a Wildlife Kayak Tour

3. Create Family Memories

One of the best tips for homeschooling on vacation is to make it a fun experience for the whole family. If one parent usually takes the lead with the schooling, switch things up and let the other parent or various family members get involved. Then, instead of recess, let off some steam with a midday family dip in the ocean!
