Traveling with children: 7 things you need in your hand luggage
You travel with children? Traveling by car, plane or train? You must to carry the luggage. What can not understand is that this bag can be a lifesaver for you if boredom strikes or disorder inevitable happens. After all, is limited to a small space with children for a number of hours. Must be prepared.
So what should you pack in the bag or sense? After some research I found that the items are classified into seven categories: food, toys, clothing, necessities, books, cleaning products, and other things that could fit in a same category for "Genius diverse."
1. Food: Let the sugar in the country. Granola bars, clementines, bananas, Cheerios, Animal Crackers, juice and water are excellent choices. To reduce the sugar in beverages also not afraid of bad water with the juice concentrate power. These foods are easy to handle and drinks can be very easy if you remember to bring your child's cup.
2. Toys / Hobbies: Think compact. Toys should not assume that space both "common sense or the bag." nesting cups, legos that fit, Card games for children, dolls and more layers of clothing can occupy the imagination of a child with a significant portion of your trip. Even paper and pencil can go far. 3. Clothing: Comfort depends on being hot clean and dry. Put your child in his "feety" pajamas (if the spirit of the feet are covered) before the trip can make your trip comfortable and can even promote sleep along the road. A set of clothing can be a valuable asset because it can be used for extra diapers for children who are cold and a clean change of clothes in case spill.
4. Needs: All the comforts of home. Remember to take small packets of tissues, hand sanitizer, lotion, dressings, and Tylenol (for you and your child.) And if you're accustomed to using a pacifier to your child, make sure you bring at least 2 or 3 on your trip in case they get lost. Carry bags Zip-lock bags or small trash for dirty clothes, dirty diapers, or food remains.
5. Books: If your child is old enough, there to choose which book (s) you want to do. Books are a great way to keep the child calm and focused as it is an intimate and often the activity "comfortably." Books on tape can be a lifesaver for parents who need to attend more than one child at a time – unless you can buy some time.
6. Cleaning agents: Oh, the magic of wet wipes. No parents should not themespecially on a trip when you're locked in with her son for hours at a time. There are many possibilities for stroke, dirty face, dirty clothes and clean dirty surfaces. Of course, if you have a baby, I'm sure you can think of other uses.
7. Several Genius: These are the creations of magic most parents prepared. For parents who have a baby and the need to heat the milk in a plane just ordered a cup of hot water place it in the thermos to make you think. The bottle can be easily placed in a vacuum and heat to desired temperature. It is also advisable to carry bottles with bags disposable so you do not have to worry about washing bottles for the trip. If your baby or toddler in a car seat for transportation, you know you need to hold the handle down during the trip. Pack some velcro and hang a bunch of toys in the front seat of the child and the child is left behind. You can even connecting a toy to another seat and make an impromptu phone.
One last thing that can make all the difference, a pair of hands. Grandparents can be a distraction for Exceptional Children and a blessing for parents who need a break. If you are a single parent or no parent class to include in your vacation, bring a friend. While this may mean "excess baggage" on their journey, whether a child should go to the bathroom and the other is in a deep sleep, a pair of hands can worth its weight in gold. After all, you deserve a holiday too!
