13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 [Next] - You can't beat music or stories for kids to pass the time. The ideal may be a personal stereo with headphones, but that's not always available or practical. If everyone has to listen together, it can be tougher, since much of kids' music is intolerable by older siblings and parents ... but not all. You might check out my stuff ... targeted toward preschool and elementary ages, but written with a wider audience in mind. I also have some stories in CD form at http://LightUpYourBrain.com The Chuckleberries 18-Dec-2003 The Chuckleberries ID414 - For long road trips with children, take a little spiral notebook and ahead of the trip write down names of all the cities you will be passing through. Then on the trip, as you get to each city, point it out to them and they can check it off their list. They get sort of a visual idea of how much more of the trip they have left and it gives them something to do every so often. On the return trip, they start at the bottom of the list and work backward. This worked really well with a six- and eight-year-old on a trip from Michigan to Florida. 1-Jan-2000 Theresa Dyer ID938 - Taking the family vacation can sometimes be difficult. So when packing, put together the children's outfits and place them folded in a plastic bag. Then you can write on the top what is in each bag and can have the clothing handy in the morning. This way you can keep everything clean and be organized and you won't have fights about what to wear. 27-Jan-2002 B.Holland ID433 - When travelling with small children, take along a package of outlet covers. Most hotel rooms neglect to provide these little shock savers, and there are often outlets placed tantalizingly at child height. For rooms equipped with stoves/ ovens, remember to bring knob covers, or simply remove the knobs while not in use. 1-Jan-2000 Mitzi Dickerson ID916 - I thought you might be interested in a product I invented for my daughter-in-law traveling with my grandson. It is called Pac Back. It is a backpack for car seats that allows a mother to travel hands-free while walking through airports. Many of the major stores and internet sites have been selling it. 6-Jun-2004 Tony Shaw ID1643 Would You Like to Add a Travel Tip?We welcome QUALITY travel tips from our users.Note: you will be required to enter the characters from a security image, so please make sure that you have your browser set to view images.
