Popis: Research on the impact of travel on child well-being has been scarce. This study explores children's travel preferences by analysing their drawings, revealing factors that enhance their well-being and engagement. We analysed 214 drawings from girls aged 8 to 11 from three schools in Tehran, Iran. The drawings illustrated playful activities, nature-based experiences, and cultural explorations with family and peers. Using visual content analysis, the findings suggest that children value interactive, educational travel experiences, enhancing their happiness and developmental growth. The research highlights the importance of considering children's perspectives in tourism planning and emphasizes family, social interactions, and environmental engagement in contributing to children's well-being. It also addresses the methodological limitations and cultural influences on their travel preferences.
