At Baby Smiles Labels, we want to make every aspect of parenting simpler, easier, and more fun for you and your child. Traveling with a toddler can be a hugely frustrating experience, and as much as we may not like it, it’s true – you can’t always hire a sitter. That’s why for this blog, we’re going to look at a few tips that can make traveling with your child a fun, exciting event instead of a traumatic one.
Tips for Traveling with a Child
- Nothing beats a time cushion: What’s the one thing you can take on a trip that will have the biggest positive impact on the health, happiness, and well being of your whole family? No, it’s not a book – it’s time. Kids are naturally inquisitive and not wild about the tight schedules of traveling, so planning your trip with as much time cushion as possible can make a big difference in how everyone feels at the end of the day.
- Make them the photographer: This is one of our favorite ideas, as it both pacifies them and encourages their artistic side – give them a durable, child-friendly camera for the trip and let them be your vacation photographer! This will let them explore their surroundings and provide a source of fun for the whole family.
- Label everything: Nothing can kill the mood of a trip like losing a favorite toy, gadget, or suitcase, so be sure to label all of your belongings! A rugged, durable label can help items get returned to you and can solidify your claim at lost and found, so be sure to stick a personalized label on all of your possessions – include your name and phone number so people know how to give it back to you.
