KWS 22 9 Day Kenya Family Safari
For
years children have been accompanying their parents to Africa
to witness the world's greatest creatures, marvel at it wildest
landscapes, and partake of its oldest cultures - only to return
home knowing very little about what they have actually seen.
Here is the ultimate children's holiday, thanks to th uniquely
educational and inspirational Kenya Adventure's Club. Accompanied
by highly trained naturalists and cultural specialists, children
will be treated to an enlightening series of walks, talks, visits
to neighboring schools and villages, games and activities designed
to help them better understand their wild surroundings.
For example a typical day out in the Mara with a Masai naturalist
might include a visit to a "manyatta" village to watch
a dance and help the local boys separating young and old sheep.
Learn to shoot a bow and arrow, make fire with sticks, make jewellery,
play animal hide-and-seek, learn tracking and identify animals,
birds, insects and butterflies. All educational materials - from
checklists and activity books to local arts and crafts - are provided
without charge. All adventurers will have a chance to craft their
own plaster cast of a local animal track - giving them a unique
souvenir that takes absolutely nothing away!
The following itinerary combines game viewing and extra curricular
activities geared towards young people. It is very participatory
and will give the children a real African experience. It will
be their holiday of a lifetime.
