Any trip and any trip will be much more pleasant if you plan everything in advance, organize and take into account all possible situations that may happen to you. If you go on a trip with a baby, then you need to write two lists: one for the child, and the second - a common one. So you can quickly estimate how many things you will need, and which ones, besides, so it will be more convenient and easier for you to understand what you have already bought, and what else you need to take care of. So, what should you look for when you travel with a child? Remember that the child will not sit quietly and look in the window, it will need something to entertain.
As in Soviet times, now the train ride remains more affordable than most other modes of transport. However, it is worth mentioning in the first place that in our time to travel by train with a baby is not so problematic as it was before. Now there are all the essentials in the cars: dry closets, soft sofas and air conditioners.
By the way, all these amenities can be found not only in the cars and the coupe, but also in the usual low-cost reserved seat. Of course, in order that you do not bustle, you need to carefully and responsibly go to the choice of the train and the car, after all, not all trains are equipped in the best way.
And this procedure is not at all complicated. Now, as well as airlines, Russian railways provide us with a service for selling tickets online.
If you decide to go with a child, then consider many things: food, change clothes and entertainment.
If you have a ticket in a good modern train, which is equipped with air conditioning, then you do not need to worry because of the drafts of the Izhar. However, the conductor can overdo it with air conditioning, so in any case, take warm clothes.
Well, if you take a small toy: a designer, coloring pages, puzzles, electronic consoles and, of course, books.
Remember also about the table games that the conductor will be able to provide to you absolutely free of charge (backgammon, checkers, chess), and also such games as "Words", "Cities", "You will go to the ball" and others.
As for food, then you need to take into account the fact that "adult" food, such as smoked sausage, mashed potatoes, instant noodles and grilled chicken in the train for kids is not at all what you need. In advance, purchase baby food in jars: various pâtés, vegetable and puree puree, meat and, of course, soluble muffins. Not only babies will be pleased with this, but children will grow up. Remember about vegetables and fruits - it is better to take them already washed and ready to eat.
Always remember hygiene. You will be helped by paper handkerchiefs, a pot, usual and wipes.
What to take on a train ride with a newborn
Of course, such situations are very rare, but sometimes it is necessary to make a journey on the train with a newborn baby. To do this, you need to buy or take from your friends a special kangaroo or sling in a lying position, so it will be most convenient for you to transport a baby.
Take the bag on your shoulder or backpack and fold it:
- rattle;
- a few diapers (depending on how much you need to go);
- cloths or napkins to wipe the face of the baby, in the event that he snorts.
Do not forget wet wipes in any case, they will help you to correct the situation if suddenly there is a childish "surprise". Especially often this happens on the road, so you should be prepared for anything.
If your journey will not last long - only three to four hours, then the above list will be enough for you. Of course, that you need to take baby things, shampoo, cream and other necessary items do not need to say. After all, now we are talking about what it is necessary to have on the train, and not about what the kid needs on arrival at the location of the destination. If the trip is, on the contrary, long, then in the travel bagfollowing fold several panties or sliders, shirts and a spare cap for your baby. Perhaps the baby will need to change.
What should I take on a train ride with a congruous child
Here, the list of necessary things does not practically change, you just need to take more toys and books, especially if it's new copies that the child has not seen before. Remember that the child will need to be entertained, and in this you will receive a cash purchase. Sometimes the baby may begin to distract music entertainment, which will then need to be replaced by something else.
If we talk about toys, then small children will ideally be approached on the road board for drawing with a stick or playing on special boards, on magnets (mosaic, dominoes, letters, lotto). If the child is older, you can buy discs with your favorite songs, riddles, fairy tales or counters. Interesting for the baby can be and ordinary gloves, which at the ends of the fingers will sew different shaggy faces. Sich help you to come up with a small play and show it to your child. Maybe, you can even come up with some new fairy tale, in which everyone will come up with one sentence (if you are traveling with the whole family).
Now you know what it takes to take a train ride with a baby, you just have to come up with some quiet games to entertain a cow.
