HOW TO TRAVEL STRESS-FREE WITH KIDS

The thrill of creating lovely family memories and showing children new places is often accompanied by the worry of potential tantrums, restlessness and meltdowns. Whether you’re taking to the skies or hitting the road, with careful planning and some useful tips and tricks, you can turn your family trip into a stress-free and enjoyable adventure. Here are our best pearls of wisdom for ensuring a smooth journey with your little ones in tow.

PLAN AHEAD

One of the key factors in having a stress-free trip with kids is thorough planning. Begin by selecting any available extra travel options that cater to families. This might be a fast track or family lane through the airport, an attendant to help you carry your stroller or travel cot onto the plane, or simply an extra suitcase to transport everything you might need.

It can also be beneficial to research local attractions and activities suitable for children along the way, to keep them engaged and entertained throughout the journey if travelling by car or train. Letting kids burn off steam outside the car will make the travel time more bearable, whilst planning a stop at an attraction or a meal on the way to your ultimate destination can break up the monotony of travel for little ones.

PACK WISELY

Packing efficiently is important when travelling with kids. Remembering to pack practical items, such as extra sets of clothing, diapers, wipes, eye masks and snacks can make all the difference. Of course, don’t forget about your child’s favourite toys, books or gadgets to keep them entertained during the journey. Packing light is ideal in most situations, but when you have kids with you, it’s much wiser to ensure you have all the essentials to avoid unnecessary stress during your trip.
