How can I teach my traveling homeschoolers science on the road?

Benefits of Homeschool Travel: Science

One of the benefits of homeschool traveling is how easy it is to teach science on the road. Children who are traveling have access to things that other children will only see pictures of in a book. For instance, if you are traveling in the West you can have your children take pictures of craters, mesas, cactus, tumbleweeds, giant redwood trees, the Rio Grande and more. These pictures can be used as topics your child can research and learn about later.

Why are the redwoods in California so big?
How does a cactus live in the desert?
What is a tumble weed and how does it form?

Science is a wonderful subject to study when you are traveling and you should take full advantage of it.
