As the weather heats up and summer soon approaches, families and friends start making plans for a fun-filled break. Whether you’re planning a full-fledged vacation out of the country with the whole brood, or going for a weekend escape with your husband to a secluded beach, it’s important to stay courteous and considerate. Pooling the kids so they don’t cause a raucous in the hotel lobby or being gracious enough to keep quiet in the wee hours of the morning so you don’t disrupt your next-door hostel neighbors is always good practice.
Make Provisions
Fussy kids can be a problem when long lines in theme parks and whole-day road trips are concerned. Planning ahead, whether you’re taking care of a one-year old or an active nine-year old helps prevent midday meltdowns that can interrupt even the best-laid plans. Toting a Ziploc bag filled with healthy treats, fruit, sandwiches, and even a bottle of water can tame unexpected hunger pangs and help settle down rowdy kids.
Appoint a Go-To Guy
Mixing different personalities while traveling with a group can be a major source of conflict. When there are one too many cooks on a family vacation, delays, mix-ups in plans and itineraries, and accidental slip-ups are inevitable. If you feel that your husband is more adept at dealing with hotel bookings, appoint him as the go-to guy in that department and allow your strengths in logistical planning, driving directions, and other tasks to keep you in charge of those areas. Separating responsbilities is not only efficient, but can tame tempers in tight situations.
Keep them Involved
Reining in the kids during holidays can be a huge, time-consuming task. Sometimes however, the adults don’t give the children as much credit as they deserve, especially when it comes to high-stress situations (consider how vacations are supposed to be hassle-free!). Whether you’re dealing with a 12-year old or a pre-schooler, clue them in on the goings-on, ask for their opinions when it comes to the places you’re visiting, and give them a rundown of rules to keep silence and courtesy for neighbors always at bay. They’ll appreciate your trust and may even work extra hard to help keep the peace throughout your holiday.
