Meet the world’s most-traveled kid, who’s hit all 7 continents in just 7 years
NY Post
By the time most kids are mastering multiplication tables, Wilder McGraw had already ticked off all seven continents — Antarctica included.
The milestone wasn’t part of some color-coded parenting master plan, insists travel writer Jordi Lippe-McGraw.
It was an accident that snowballed into a family quest — one that ended with the Upper West Sider’s 7-year-old wobbling across Antarctic ice this fall, wide-eyed and bundled up.
“We didn’t start out with the intention of raising a child who would see seven continents by 7,” Lippe-McGraw, 39, told The Post. “We were just traveling because that’s who we are and what we love.”
The lightbulb moment came when Wilder was 5.
As Lippe-McGraw and her husband Ross McGraw casually tallied destinations ahead of a South America trip, they realized he’d already visited five continents.
