5 Quick Tips for Traveling with Children
Let Them Help:
Involve kids in planning decisions, have them write their own packing lists, or assign them something to carry during the trip.
Something Old, Something New:
Bringing something familiar, like a favorite blanket or stuffed animal can be comforting. Pack a new toy or game and save it as a surprise for when your child starts to get restless along the way.
Know Their Limits:
Be realistic about how much travel time or how many planned activities your kids can handle. Make sure to have a balanced amount of unstructured down time.
Get in Shape:
If your family isn’t used to doing a lot of walking, spending the day at an amusement park or touring a city will be exhausting. Build your endurance by taking family walks before the trip.
Be Flexible:
Sticking to a plan is great, but if you sense it’s just not working for your family, don’t be afraid to improvise.
