Travel frees the mind and spirit!
Lets go to the 17th Travel Tour Expo on February 19- 21, 2010 at the SMX Convention center Halls 2, 3 & 4, Seashell Drive Mall of Asia Complex, Pasay City...
For a mother like me, planning a family vacation takes 2-3 months planning, given that the vacation should be enjoyable to my two very young kids. Travelling with two toddlers is no joke. You have to consider several things in order for the whole family to enjoy the vacation. For this year, we're planning to go to Boracay on April 9-11, 2010 so I hope we can get good deals in the travel fair...my husband and I have been going to this travel fair since 2006 when we bought our honeymoon package to Bangkok, then our trip to Hongkong Disneyland last year.
Here are some tips to consider when travelling with kids:
1. organize the flight schedule times during nap time of children so that they wont be fussy or hyper active during flights
2. consider the road trip itinerary and that you can have access to food, restaurants in case children get hungry. Better to have packed snacks, drinks just in case road trip may take a long time with no stop-over.
My sister, another wondermom, also shared her tips on how to travel with kids:
3. If they are not able to take a nap, ensure to bring activities they can do to pass time ( e.g. coloring books, puzzles, play dough, etc. ); Bring out one activity or toy at a time so they will continue being excited and interested.
4. make sure snacks are in ziploc plastic bags, easy to pack and easy to dispose as well. drinks should be in their own sippy cups or in a container which you can reseal if they are not able to finish it.
5. Bring lots of wipes, tissues and alcohol/ hand sanitizer
6. Dont forget to bring lots of patience ...
What's your tip for travelling with kids safely and fun?
