A small child requires cares and vigilant attention. And yet you can spend a vacation with the baby so that he will be under supervision, and you will rest. Here are some tips to help in this.
Simplify the food.
If your child needs a nipple, why not use disposable nipples? Why long and tiresome to cook porridge, if you can buy baby food? And sometimes you can replace a child's dinner with a bottle of warm milk. It is very simple and does not create any problems, even with 2-3 year old children.
What is necessary for health?
The two most common problems during rest are - upset stomach and high fever. Before leaving, ask the doctor for a prescription to buy medicines from the temperature, and from a disorder of the stool for the baby. Do not forget the baby cream from mosquitoes. Take baby canned foods with carrots and quinces that help with stomach upset.
Wherever you go do not forget to take with you a first aid kit of the most necessary medicines: bandage, cotton wool, zelenka, iodine; antispasmodics - no-shpu; anti-burn agent "Pantenol", antiallergic drugs - klaritin, ointment "Rescuer", disposable syringes.
Cosmetics and hygiene products.
Do not forget to take your baby sunblock with the maximum protection factor and moisturizer after sunbathing. Grab a baby cream, soap, sponge, baby shampoo. It is not superfluous to take another repellent to place in the child's room to scare off mosquitoes and midges. Stock up with wet wipes, preferably without a smell, especially if the baby is small and likes to pull fingers in the mouth. A baby-govadosiku will probably need diapers. It is advisable to take with you for the first time, then when you take a closer look to the area, buy it.
Flexible sleep.
A foldable cot in a folded state takes up no more space than a travel bag. It is easily decomposed, and it can be put anywhere. To avoid biting insects, you can use a protective mosquito net over the crib. Make the child's sleep mode flexible. The child also wants to talk with you more, especially if you work. Do not force him to sleep if he wants to stay with you a little longer. But as soon as the kid begins to be capricious - it means it's time to put him to bed. If the child falls asleep heavily in an unfamiliar place, take out the crib into fresh air (if you are resting in the summer): sleep will quickly come to the singing of birds and the rustling of leaves in the wind. In the evenings, let the child fall asleep in your room, with you, and then when he falls asleep, transfer him to his room.
What kind of toys?
It is best to bring a bright glass or a bucket. Children love to pour water in the inflatable pool or on the beach. Do not forget the big inflatable ball. The kid can play with him on the beach and in the water. And of course, sand molds. In addition, dads usually, very good build of sand castles. This will be an excellent opportunity for the father to communicate with the child, and you can rest a little. Grab a couple of your favorite baby books. Reading, which, before going to bed will help to relax the child.
Do not eat in small local restaurants, and be careful with exotic foods. The less changes in the child's habitual diet, the better. You can take with you canned baby food, which the child at home ate. At the slightest signs of a child's ailment, immediately seek help from a doctor. In no case do not self-medicate.
And the most important thing is your communication with the baby, especially if he already understands everything and can talk to him on an equal footing. Try to take advantage of this precious time, when you do not need to rush anywhere and you can give all your attention to the most precious little man. And then the delight of the crumb is enough until next summer, and the memories of a joint rest - for life.
