How to properly fold bags and do not forget anything important, if you are relaxing on a long journey with a child? In this article I would like to talk about what things are necessary in traveling with a child. Speech will go for the smallest, since for older children the list of necessities on the trip practically coincides with the list that adults make up for themselves. But the kids on the trip need a lot of things, without which they will be capricious, crying, they can not sleep and eat peacefully.
Things of prime necessity
So, what are the things that are necessary for traveling with a child? If the child is very small, then you should pack things in such a way that you can immediately get access to the diaper, which can be bedded, for example, on a shelf in a car, disinfecting wet napkins, paper handkerchiefs, pampers, panties, pantyhose. If the baby wants to sleep, it's good that he can take cover with his favorite blanket. In addition, immediately under these, the most necessary things, there must be a change of clothes. For example, if you travel by train in winter, it is likely that the car will be heated and the baby will become hot in the sweater. Therefore, you need to have an easier T-shirt or sweater, in which you can change your son or daughter. When you pack necessary things, try not to put them in cellophane, plastic and paper wrappers. The fact is that on trips the child's dream becomes even more sensitive. If you start to rustle with cellophane or paper, the baby can wake up and you will have to lay it again. So if there is a possibility, it is better to put all the things in bags of cloth.
When traveling with a small child, it is advised to carry a sling or kangaroo for carrying. Although it is believed that the sling can only be used for up to three months, while traveling, it is still possible to use a little of it, during transplants from one transport to another and so on. The fact is that with a stroller you will be very uncomfortable, especially on the train. You will not be able to properly place it, and the neighbors on the coupe are unlikely to be satisfied with the fact that you took up all the free space. But if you travel on an airplane, where one more place is placed on the child, especially for hand luggage, then you can safely take both the stroller and the baby seat. You can take the wheelchair right next to the plane's ramp, just do not forget to stick a baggage bag on it. When the flight is over, you can also pick up the stroller near the gangway.
Medicines
Traveling with a child also can not do without medication. Medications are the necessary drugs that should always be at your fingertips. Be sure to take antipyretics, insect repellent, ointments from burns, suntan cream (if you are going on summer vacation), anti-allergic drugs (suprastin, tavegil), activated charcoal, preparations for stomach upset, drugs for the cold and cough, plasters, bandages, hydrogen peroxide, iodine or zelenka. It would also be good for a baby to grab an inhalation pacifier that will protect him from infections in crowded places.
Food on the Journey
And the last thing to remember when you collect things on the road is food. If you are traveling on a short trip, then you can take food with you, to which the baby is already accustomed. The main thing is that it does not go bad on the way. In the case when you go on a long trip, you can buy something that, perhaps, will not be in a new place. Of course, all products must have a long shelf life. In any case, if you are going to cook yourself and have the opportunity to bring food from home, stock up on everything necessary so that you can not later find stores at the resort. When traveling with children, always have a handful of natural juice and mineral water on hand. Remember that if the train has a high temperature, you can not only quench your child's thirst, but also wipe it off so that the baby is not so hot.
