Travel With Kids: Kid-Friendly Travel Tips

Traveling with children can be an extremely daunting task; it's like taking a herd of goats on a vacation. The factor of traveling with children means that you need to take a lot of toilet breaks, stay prepared for a tantrum at any time and constantly staying engaged. Here are some kid-friendly travel tips that will help you in making you're traveling less stressful. These tips include advices on traveling with toddlers and older children.

Take Your Time - Easy Way To Avoid Tantrums
When traveling with toddlers try to reach the airport a couple of hours earlier then the scheduled time. Toddlers love to explore and they don't care about time pressures while traveling, so if you travel a little early it can save you from the tantrums, delaying, ogling and faffing.


Give Your Little One A Camera - Be A Photographer!
Give your little one a camera, tell them you are playing a game with them, kids love to play pretending games. Tell your child that he or she is a photographer and they should capture some nice photos. The result can be surprising because those little hands will soon get busy and get you some cool pictures of things which caught their interests.


Be An App Lover - Try Toddler Friendly Apps
Thanks to the play store loaded with numerous toddler friendly apps now you don't have to pack a bag full of toys. But I will recommend you to pack a coloring book and magic scribbler because crayons can get lost easily and this means that if you don't find the crayons, a tantrum will be coming soon.


Try To Invest In A Child Locator
Honestly speaking, when I traveled with my little one for the first time my experience wasn't good, I realized you just can't leash them. Little ones don't like any contravention on their freedom. So take my honest suggestion, invests in a child locator if you are traveling through train station, bus station or airport. The child locator is not at all uncomfortable for the child they have to wear a small unit strap to their belt or shoe and you get to keep the transmitter. So incase if you lose your kid, just set off the alarm and follow the sound to find them.


Don't Let Your Children Pack Their Backpacks
I once allowed my five year old to pack his backpack and all the time at the airport he kept complaining that his backpack was too heavy. Reason? Well when I opened his backpack I found he brought the entire fossil collection of his just in case. So another honest advice do let the kids pack their own bags but later do check it and edit out the heavy stuff.


Avoid Sweets And Give Them Healthy Snacks
If you are traveling on a long haul flight with kids then avoid feeding them sweets. Pack some healthy snacks like fruits, bagels, pretzel, bread sticks or cheese cubes, plus avoid sugary juices instead encourage them on drinking water.


Encourage Your Kids To Keep A Travel Journal
Encourage your kids to keep a travel journal, get them to draw the places they have seen and write down something about it which interested them the most. Get them to write about different food which they tried. Also help them with collecting postcards and ask them to write some message on it so that when they grow up they can always know the things they did in their childhood.
