Stress Free Tips for Traveling with Kids
| December 3, 2018
Bring some novel entertainment
Traveling can be thrilling but it can also involve a lot of waiting around which kids just don’t have the patience for. Coloring books, toys, and tablets are all great things to bring along on a trip in order to keep your kids entertained; but if you really want to arm yourself, bring something new that they’ve never played with before. The excitement of a brand new toy will keep them occupied far longer than something that they’ve played with a million times before would. Don’t bust out the new stuff too soon though, instead save them for when they’re on the brink of a tantrum as a last resort and hopefully the novelty will make them forget all about their impending meltdown.
