【推荐2】How to organize your free time with your family

The following tips can help you schedule for fun family activities.

    1     Most cities and towns have well-maintained websites listing free and cheap activities for families. You can also find coupons (优惠券) for local museums and restaurants. If you can’t think of anything to do with your children, look on that website for inspiration.

Do something outside. Between school and working, the chances are good that you and your child spend a lot of time inside. Improve your health and your mood by spending time outside together.     2    

Take your kids to a competitive event. Competitive events are exciting to attend and might promote a lifelong liking in your child.     3     For example, if you both enjoy Bruce Lee’s movies, attend a martial arts competition.

Take advantage of Saturdays. If you don’t work on Saturdays, set that day aside for family activities.     4     Alternatively, go on a day trip to a nearby tourist location. This will get your kids out of the house and teach them about their community.

Create a comfortable relaxing space for teenagers.     5     However, you probably still want to spend quality time with your child. To do so, create a welcoming, comfortable space that’s perfect for hanging out and talking. In this spot, you and your teenager can have a snack, do homework, or just chat.

【推荐1】Vacation often starts with a wonderful idea.     1     With a little bit of preparation and effort, travelers can overcome 90% of the difficulties they may face during a trip. Here are useful tips on how to plan a trip.

Picking the right destination according to the season is a key factor in planning a trip successfully.     2     Usually, the ideal season to visit beaches, mountains and forests is completely different. Also take the cost factor into consideration. Going to a luxury destination during the shoulder season can result in some good discounts on hotels and flights.

Another key aspect of a good trip planning is to correctly estimate the number of days required.     3     Some travelers like to see new cities every day, whereas some prefer taking it slow. You’d better leave an empty day in travel plans in which there are more than 7 days so that things like terrible weather won’t mess up the whole arrangement.

    4     Prices of flights and accommodations rise over time if you are planning for a vacation that falls during the peak season of that particular destination. So making a reservation a few months in advance will help you avoid additional costs.

Pack wisely and do necessary research. An extra shirt, sweater, or jumper can prove handy during trips where the weather is expected to be cold or rainy. As responsible tourists, travelers must know the destination they are visiting.     5     Because it helps them avoid conflict or disrespect to the locals.

【推荐2】The Top 4 Beaches on the East Coast

Lying off the coast of Georgia, this 5,700-acre barrier island is famous for its nesting sea turtles and hermit crabs. Glory Beach got its name because producers of the 1989 movie Glory, featuring Matthew Broderick, Morgan Freeman, and Denzel Washington built a long- boardwalk to the beach that remains in place.

Accessible by ferry, Block Island shows New England charm. It's worth the effort to get to Mohegan Bluffs, where you can experience a set of 141 wooden steps leading down to the sand. With clay cliffs (陶土崖) and a view that reaches Montauk at the eastern tip of Long Island, this beach is especially unique.

Great point, at the easternmost end of the island of Nantucket, is one of the most secret beaches in the world. That's because you need a four-wheel drive vehicle and a beach permit to get there. Once you do, you'll find miles of beachfront and a historic lighthouse.

Named the best beach in the county in 2013 , Main Beach in East Hampton is known for its wide stretch of sand plus a snack (点心) bar, bathrooms and lockers. On-site parking is only available to local village people but there are free beach shuttles (班车) available.
