冬夢 , you are so very right, especially the part about "如果你想去,是為自己而不是為孩子."! We really do this because of our own interest in travelling. However there's a great benefit of travelling with kids, the locals love you! We rent apartments rather than staying hotels, we stay at non -tourist areas where we get a real taste of the local life style. We also slow down rather than rushing through the so called "must sees".
As for museums and so on, we do it anyways at home starting at a young age. However, we try to accommodate to their interests and only spend a few hours each time in a museum (that's what I like to do anyways, I can't stand spending a whole day in a museum). In Europe, there are great museums and little museums that have free hours or some kind of passes so we could go multiple times and each time only visit a small section, it gave everyone a nice time to enjoy it. We do the same at home with annual passes or those free admission days.
I think 交友做義功 can be done too, you just have to do the slow traveling I guess. In any cases, my kids are still young, we are doing what we can to keep this going, and hope and pray when they get older, we discover new ways to travel together. I remember how much I appreciated my parents when they took me to places in China when I was a teen.
Happy travels and happy parenting to everyone!
