Live with Five Jr

Dear Agency Partners,

When we launched Precious Journeys®, our goal was to present family focused travel opportunities instead of merely family tolerant trips. Everything continually evolved as families made up one in ten of Big Five’s travelers a decade ago to one in three today. The only thing that had to shine through always was that our family travel was focused on children leading the way as if to complete a mission.

Enter Live with Five Jr, where Fortnite and Zelda meet family travel. Neither parents nor children are satisfied pacifying the younger ones with coloring books and false responsibility. Why not put the real challenges and the fate of a task in their hands?

Live with Five Jr presents virtual events with key decisions that only children can make during the adventure. Those choices have a direct impact on whether the mission is accomplished. For example, the video you watched with this blog showed Arianis, the two-year-old with a form of leprosy, with her siblings. She is getting healthier now after she received medical treatment. How might seeing her progress impact and even motivate children to do more in their own communities. Heroes are made every day… Who says they must be adults?

Chapter 1 Season 1 of Live with Five Jr premiers July 10 at 12pm. Sign up here with your child. Members of the Kids Kouncil® will on this inaugural voyage, test driving the experience so the next chapter will be even more challenging.
