ST. GEORGE — A St. George travel family has turned their globetrotting adventures into what could be a game-changing creation: the ultimate travel bag for kids, making family travel easier than ever.

"It's always been our dream to give our kids the gift of seeing the world — to travel, adventure and explore," Pacca Gear co-owner St. George Musical Theater performer Brooke Bang said. "We want them to experience different cultures, gain fresh perspectives and learn how to navigate the world. It's about showing them that the world is interconnected and that other viewpoints are not only different but valuable to understand."

She and her husband, Tysen Bang, have spent most of their lives traveling and have shared that passion with their four children since they were babies. When each child turns 11, they are given their own passport and the freedom to choose any destination in the world to explore.

When their son Mason was studying World War II and expressed interest in visiting a concentration camp, the family traveled to Germany to visit the Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial Site.
