Take care of kids itself is a tough job, especially when you travel to abroad with kids, you have to be keen. We need to check their seat belt properly; sometime they tried to open that. And taking to the toilet and help them to wipe out for the nature call.

Always avoid unhealthy food which always tempt the kids. When you try to do all these, you fly happily with kids.

Hi There !!

Yep, we must take special care for the kids while travelling,we must take all the necessary things with us for the kids like dress, medicines, etc. Because kids will get affected immediately when climate changed, or something like that.

Thanks & Regards

ohh, since when ravelling with kids an issue....
i have been travelling with kids since they are born. i flew with 3 weeks newborn child ( first child, plus young mom), winter time, long  hours of travel. i flew 7 months  pregnant with first child( age 1 year old)from Geneva to Mozambique ( imagine the distance and non direct flight).
All goes fine, kids are always fine with parents.
Today kids 10,11, still flying everywhere, they are so used to it, so am i. travelling is great, just tiring if long distance...i prefer to travel even its hard than to be stuck in one country...hehe

Know what ?! I have two girls .. now they are 12 and 15... but when they were much younger like 5 & 8 or even 2 & 5 ...we have travelled to many places as a family!
What i hate is then when a child cries in the airplane, most of the other passengers give dirty looks...>!
As an adult, often on long flights I feel like crying because of being locked in a tube, travelling thru space at 777 Kms an hour !  So if a child cries then it is natural... Ain't it ?

Rude people forget that they too must have done the same thing when then were  young ! Or perhaps their parents ignored  and left them home-alone and enjoyed their trip... hence the inborn feeling of frustration related rudeness.

Accept all the sounds as natural... Everyone has a right to his/her own space.........Respect the disturbance as you would respect the sublime moonlight in the stillness of the forest.

Not being influenced by changing circumstances is a mark of a cultured person.
