About Carolina

Carolina is a second grade teacher in Northern California who takes advantage of her summers off to travel near and far. She believes children can supplement their school learning through first-hand experiences, and plans on giving her son as many of those as possible. She hopes he will appreciate the trip she is planning to Hoover Dam to learn about hydroelectric power. Or at least the opportunity to say the word “dam” as many times as he wants. Find more of her writing online at her family travel blog Kids Go West.
