I can get FCC but it would have to be used by the end of the year and school starts the next week.  Then I run into the problem of having to take the 2 big ones out of school.  

 The "two big ones" are very young. It's one thing to take a middle schooler or high schooler out of school (becomes much more difficult), but you're talking about preschool and kindergarten. Not exactly the same.

Always took our kids out of school for family vacations.  Most teachers did not like it, but we felt they learned so much from traveling the world.  Were told they would suffer in the long run, both graduated with honors and today have wonderful jobs that they love.

Part of taking a vacation is keeping the kids entertained when they don't have other activities going on.

No doubt travel is a learning experience that far outweighs learning from a book or computer.
