My opinion is just take them on holidays that require short journeys, there is plenty of time when they are older to go further afield. A nice short journey and plenty of fun things to do is all they need.

write a list of everything to take and dont be too ambitious with the journey time, uk based is easier x

Bought inflatable cars seats so we don't need to carry too much. Brought scooters for city tours. Made sure to include in everyday's itinerary children fun packed activities

Forget staying a hotel room. Rent an apartment or house so you have room for the toddler to play and for everything that they need.
