Use these tender years to get your kids ready for more strenuous and interesting trips. Take them on day trips to museums and parks and concerts and all the fabulous local sites your city has to offer . Don't make the mistake of forcing too much into one day - when they've had it, go home. Little by little they will become more travel ready - take them on longer trips - they can learn how to entertain themselves in the car if you plan ahead and bring a well stocked backpack with books, games, art supplies... Stop often and enjoy the beauty and wonder of the places along the way - and give those little bodies time to run and move and get their energy out.
Patience is key when traveling with children. Try to adjust your adult expectations for a trip to their perspective. As they get older, you will be able to explore and experience the world together. Trust me - these years will rush by. |
