Stress Free Tips for Traveling with Kids
Pack smart
Kids need a lot of stuff; diapers, extra clothing, toys, and gear for every kind of weather. So while it can be difficult to pack light, at least try to pack smart. Check the weather at your destination and avoid bringing anything you likely won’t need, then make a checklist for every family member and stick to it. If you’re traveling with an infant it can be a good idea to pack spare diapers in every bag and keep them in an accessible pocket to avoid having to dig through your luggage to find one. Packing color-coordinated separates for your kids that you can mix and match in the case of a spill or an accident can be a lifesaver. Finally, don’t pack anything you can easily buy at your destination like extra diapers or toiletries; the lighter your load, the easier your trip will be.
