Are you planning a getaway with Havens Holidays this year with your little ones? A family trip is a great time to relax and enjoy quality time together and Havens Holidays family parks provide everything you need from food and drink to entertainment to activities.
Travelling with young ones can be a challenge, so here are some travelling tips for making sure that your tiny travel companions have the time of their lives:
Keep Them Well Rested
Holidays are very exciting and too much excitement can lead to exhausted, overwhelmed and cranky children. It’s important to make sure that your little ones get the rest that they need to take on the day so that they can enjoy their Havens Holidays to the fullest.
It can be difficult for a young child to fall asleep in the unfamiliar atmosphere of a hotel room, so bring comforting items such as a favourite toy, blanket or storybook in your suitcase. Try to instil a somewhat normal bedtime and include mid-afternoon naps for very small ones.
Give Them Say in What Happens
If you try to drag your kids along on a holiday which is only focused on what you enjoy, don’t be surprised when they are bored and unhappy. A family holiday should include a balance of activities which are fun for the entire family, young and old!
Show your child the Havens Holidays brochure or website and let them help you plan the activities that you will enjoy when you get there. Giving them the power to choose some activities for themselves will help them become more invested in the holiday and have a better time.
Be Prepared
Heading out for a full day of exploring the Havens Holidays Park or one of the nearby beaches? Take a small day pack with you that you can fill with everything that you might need throughout the day, such as sunscreen, water, a small first aid kit, healthy snacks, juice boxes and much more. You never know when someone might get hungry or thirsty or fall down and need you to swoop in to the rescue to save the day.
Have a great time on your Havens Holidays and enjoy creating the family memories that your children will cherish forever.
