Holmen, WI - There may be no better U.S. history lesson than seeing the country first-hand. 

That's eactly what one area mother was thinking, when she set out with her three children nine months ago to give them an education they would never forget. 

Sara Zittlow and her family were already making plans to move back to where she grew up. That's why she says the timing was perfect to show her children our country, from sea to shining sea.

The consenus "least favorite" capital amongst the family was Juneau, Alaska.

Some of the favorites included Albany, New York, Salt Lake City, Utah and Honolulu, Hawaii.

The family has been in contact with the Guiness Book of World Records. 8-year-old Ryan may be the youngest documeted person to visit all 50 capitals. The family is still waiting to hear whether his name will make it in the book.
