Traveling with the children is always a good idea. No matter how old your little ones are, it is great to consider booking a trip with them.

It might be a lot trickier, not to mention a whole lot stressful, to take a trip with smaller children who may not be as cooperative as their older siblings. They might easily give a fuss about missing their binky, or their favorite blankie, or about why the trip is taking too long and there might be more things that need to packed, including diapers, feeding bottles, and the likes, compared to when you are tagging along older children, but nothing beats careful planning, and being prepared for whatever circumstance, to solve this dilemma.

Packing a bigger bag and separating each child’s stuff into smaller containers or ziplocks will also prove to be helpful so you will be more organized in unpacking once at the hotel or resort or packing up again before heading back home. Items such as the children’s snack, vitamins and medicine, as well as books or toys to ward off boredom or tantrums away, must all be packed in mum’s big handbag so they are a lot easier to retrieve when needed. Packing up essentials, as well as enough amount of patience, will surely do the trick. Plus, there are also many resources online that offers nifty tips and tricks on how you can reduce stress while traveling with kids.
Being a work-at-home parent has many advantages and is a true blessing. For example, running a home office will provide you with several unique advantages that will often translate in saving money, having more spare time for your children, and avoiding the neurotic modern commuter’s lifestyle.
Here’s a run-down of the best reasons why work-at-home parenting just makes sense:
The most obvious benefit of working at home is the flexibility; you get to make your own schedule and adapt your routine to your workload and vice-versa. This can be particularly useful when raising a child, since it means you’ll have the time and energy to do proper parenting, rather than having to sacrifice your ideals to keep up with your office duties.
Since working at home often means you will be able to get by without any need to hire child care services that will invariably let you save a lot of money! Not to mention that you will have the luxury of raising your children yourself, rather than having to rely on external assistance that often comes with a hefty price tag.
Is there anything worse than being miles from your destination with your kids in the back squealing, falling out with each other and endlessly whining “are we there yet?”.
It’s the battle all parents have to face, but with the right preparation you can limit the damage and enjoy stress-free and pleasant journeys.
Start off right with a car suitable for your family’s needs. Safety is always high on the priority list for parents, so check out the air bags and braking system.
Kids always come with plenty of baggage: whether it’s buggies, changing bags or toys. Make life easier for yourself and find a car with plenty of space to fit in the buggy and spare clothes. Storage in the passenger area of the car can also be used to your benefit by placing toys and activities within your child’s reach.
Little extras like tinted rear windows (or adding in sun blinds) will make the journey more comfortable for your kids.
If your current car doesn’t fit the bill or you need a car abroad, check out sites with child friendly car options, such as Intelligent Car Leasing who provide UK car leasing and contract hire to personal customers.
Preparation is key. Arm yourself ahead of time with as many distractions and activities as you can. Ask your kids to pick out some of their favorite music to play on the journey. Kids can fill out activity printables on the lap trays, or on a clipboard.
Simple coloring pads and wax crayons will help keep younger children entertained, whilst older kids may want to take a DVD player and headphones, or a small games console.
Classic travel games such as “I Spy” or looking for a particular color car are also great to use up a bit of extra time.
