Traveling With A Large Family
TIPS ON TRAVELING WITH THE FAMILY
When traveling, most would not agree with 'the more, the
merrier'. But it can be! Well, it should be. Traveling with the
family can be hassle- free and loaded with fun. There is no
reason you shouldn't bring the kids and the entire family with
you. Here are a few tips you can use for an easy, stress- free
travel.
Plan with the entire family Get each family member's opinion on
which places to go. Kids love it when they get involved. Make a
short list of the places they want to visit and get the
majority's preference. Plan simple yet fun activities for the
whole family to enjoy.
Distribute tasks Help each other especially when packing. Give
each one a responsibility. You can have your kids check on the
first- aid kit, your husband to bring all bulky equipments and
you take charge preparing the food. This way, your load can be
lessened and everyone would feel the importance of each one's
contribution.
Travel light Since most of the space of your car would be for
people, pack only the essential things you need. If possible you
can hire strollers for the kids instead of carrying one.
Transfer shampoos, mouthwash and the like in small plastic
containers instead of bringing the entire thing. Remember that
traveling light doesn't mean traveling incomplete. Carry all
important stuff you need to bring.
Secure your house Since all of your family members are with you
on the trip, you can opt to hire a house sitter. If not, have a
neighbor look out for the house for you. Unplug all electrical
appliances and be sure to secure all door and windows.
Be safe Always carry with you a medicine kit for emergencies.
This should include aspirins, laxative, insect repellant,
bandages, ointments and alcohol. More importantly, bring enough
prescription drugs if any of the family members is on
medication. Bring enough to last for the entire duration of the
trip.
Bring in the fun Take pictures and videos to document your trip.
Take turns in using the camera, this way everyone will get a
memorable shot taken. You can take the pictures and put them in
a nice travel journal when you get home. This way you can enjoy
the fun memories as often as you want.
Remember that the entire objective of a family trip is to have
fun. Follow the quick tips above and you can head your way to an
enjoyable travel.
