Sandra’s Travel Adventures!
After a long journey, I finally made it to Sevilla, Spain!!! My best friend, Jessica is studying abroad here so I am visiting her with Sandra in SpainCharli and Kaitlyn. As soon as we got here we went to explore the city. We took a bike tour that the four of us had to petal. We passed the Plaza de Espana. We also stopped for dinner and got tapas. The food is so good here and the weather is beautiful. Tomorrow we are going to a soccer game. Check back next week for another adventure!

Tips for Traveling with Kids Made Easy!

Tips for Traveling with Kids Made Easy!

traveling with childrenTraveling with young children can sometimes be a little challenging. Young children can get bored quickly and are not easily occupied unlike teenagers and young adults.

To make traveling with children easier, here are a few helpful tips:

Traveling on a Plane:
• If you are traveling on a plane, be sure in your “carry-on-bag” you pack kid friendly supplies such as crayons, coloring books, headphones for music and movies and easy snacks such as crackers and fruit snacks. Also gum and lollipops help clear your children’s ears when up in high altitudes.

Traveling in the Car:
• If you are traveling in a car, pack kid friendly CD’s or DVDs to make the time go faster. Children can get very restless if they are in a car for a long period of time. Playing games such as “I Spy” will help keep your children occupied.

Traveling by Public Transportation:

• If you are traveling on a bus or train it is always good bring antibacterial products such as wipes and hand gel. Bring along an IPod or MP3 player for your child to listen to on the ride to sooth and calm them.

Before leaving for your trip, be sure that you pack the following check list:
• Pull-Ups & Diapers
• Wipes
• Change of Clothes
• Crayons
• Coloring Books
• Kid Friendly CD’s
• Sunglasses
• Juice Boxes
• Snacks
• Water
• Hand-Gel
• Tylenol or Motrin
• Favorite Toy
• Blanket

Traveling with Children can be made easy by simply following some of these helpful tips and ideas for all types of travel!
