10 TRAVEL TIPS
1 Pack a change of clothes for you and your child. Spills often end up on Mom or Dad too.
2 Dress your child in layers. Cabin temperature can be unpredictable.
3 Plan your flight activities in 15-minute slots. In other words, for a two-hour flight, plan eight activities.
4 Pack a tiny version of your firstaid kit to keep on you in case of emergency fevers or scrapes.
5 Keep empty shopping bags in the car for rubbish.
6 Stop every two hours for a short break and to stretch legs.
7 Take favourite blankies and soft toys along for happy naps.
8 Children should be strapped in always – no exceptions. Ever.
9 Keep wet wipes in your handbag and in your car.
