About Go2Guides

Go2Guides are quick, fun guides that kids can read independently to build excitement for and get the most learning from trips abroad. Go2Guides are available for three age ranges: 5-7 years old, 8-11 years old and 12+ years old. Each one contains information about places to visit in the country and background information on topics such as history, beliefs, manners, food, animals, and language—all with the idea of making each trip more meaningful for each child. While some of the content is the same across the three age groups, some is unique, providing a great opportunity for each child in a family to become an expert in certain areas and share with the rest of the family. By design, Go2Guides are colorful and brief, so as to be inviting for children and easy to carry along on a trip.

About the Founder

A passionate world traveler, Linda Cohen's love for traveling was instilled as a child when she visited historic spots around the United States on vacations with her family. As a student, she was a foreign exchange student in Argentina, studied in England and extensively explored Europe. Now, with her children Matthew and Emily and husband Alan, she is enthusiastically exploring the rest of the world, hoping to instill in her own children the same passion for learning about other people and cultures. So far, the Cohen family has explored countries on six continents together. While planning and enjoying international family adventures, Linda discovered that there were not many travel resources available for children to read and learn from on their own. From this insight the company's first product line-Go2Guides-was developed. Linda has an M.B.A. from Harvard Business School and over 15 years of experience in marketing and management consulting.
