Travel and holiday news and reviews
After you have children, the thought of a holiday may be terrifying – but that need not be the case. It is always going to be more complicated than when it was just the two of you, especially when your children are very young, but there are people who are more than happy to help and with a bit of careful planning you can reach your destination safely and without too many new grey hairs!
Ideally you need to pack plenty to do on the aeroplane, train, or however it is you are travelling. Depending on the age of your children this could include games and videos for a tablet or handheld games console, pencils and colouring books, activity and story books and a favourite teddy for comfort.
If you research beforehand, there are plenty of hotels and campsites that can offer activities for children too. Some have a babysitting service that you can make use of if you want to have adult time on an evening. Swimming pools are always a fun part of the holiday too, and now you have an excuse to have fun on the water slides with the children!
