Going on our first abroad holiday next month, 4 of us, including a 5 and 4 year old to Europe to a centre parks type resort. Never done this before so judt wanted to know does anyone have any great tips for traveling with wee ones? Any essential items to pack other than the main clothes and toiletries??
Any suggestions/words of wisdom welcome! Thank you! 😊

Take a black out blind and white noise if you want them to sleep in.
How are you travelling?

Oh black out blind is a good shout thank you. Flying by plane, kids have been in plane when they were very little so dont remember it. Planning to bring headphones and ipad for that

Pack snacks that they are familiar with for the airport, plane and the first few days until you can do a supermarket shop.
Also, take those little squeezy bottles of concentrated squash in case they don’t like the taste of the water over there!
Stick to their normal bedtime routine as much as possible.
Watch before you go.
Don’t pack anything in your hold luggage that you’re not prepared to lose or be without for a few days, just in case it gets lost or damaged en route. So make sure irreplaceable comforters and cuddly toys are in your hand luggage.
