Reduce your mental and emotional stress when travelling with a mini terror in tow.
If you have an infant, chances are, you can say goodbye to a footloose and fancy-free lifestyle. Travelling can no longer be about packing up and jetting off at the drop of a hat; instead, it involves an almost military like precision and strategic planning to ensure all bases are covered. Still, it doesn’t mean your travelling days are over. We offer you some tips that will make your journey smoother and more stress-free. We can’t guarantee your trip will be perfect (babies, as you know, are unpredictable), but it will be decidedly more pleasant.
1 BRING THEIR FAVOURITE THINGS
You’re heading to a foreign place, so it’s natural that your child will feel more insecure and unsure of his or her surroundings. Bring along a favourite blanket, pillow, teether or rattle — the familiar objects will soothe the child a little. Books, snacks and toys can also serve as a distraction when he or she starts to get cranky on the plane. These will be a real godsend when a tantrum happens.
