HELP - ABBYMUMSNET NEEDS YOUR HOLIDAY SURVIVAL TIPS

7 replies

Hi all,
I'm doing a couple of pieces for a travel web-site that I need your help with.
The first is focusing on holiday "survival" tips. For example: surviving the family packing without incurring massive excessive baggage fees - so what are the essential items you shouldn't travel without and what can you leave behind? Surviving the journey itself - tricks to make the time fly/what must come in your flight bag and so on. Surviving the heat... and the insect life - so tips on good child-friendly products and sun protection clothing that won't make your kids look dead weird. Surviving foreign food when you're child's a fussy eater... It's not a very long piece, but if you have any top tips please send them my way. I'll use your MN names if I use your tips.
Also, I'd be really interested for any tips and anecdotes re' what elements combine to make the perfect beach holiday for a family? And how do you ensure that you keep varying ages of kids happy?
Thanks in advance. x

Thank you for all your help so far. Re' beach hols' - where have you lot been that ticks all the boxes? And, if you're recalling that perfect holiday, what was it that made it so special? (Keep it decent!)

Thanks for all your help so far. Any favourite suggestions for a brand of sun protection clothing that doesn't make kids look freaky?
