Top 10 Reasons for Travelling With Kids
“Are you taking the kids?” is often the first thing people ask me when discussing our upcoming travel plans.
”Of course!” I usually reply. ”They’re too young to leave at home with a bowl of cereal and a bucket of water.”
I won’t lie, travelling with kids is a whole different ball game compared to travelling alone or as a couple. However, it can still be a ton of fun!
Keep reading for my top 10 reasons for travelling with kids!
Reason # 1 for Travelling With Kids
You desperately need a holiday and you have kids … it’s a no brainer!
Reason # 2
Making family memories and looking back over the photographs later is lots of fun.
Reason # 3
Travelling will open their hearts and minds to the world, teaching them about tolerance and compassion.
Reason # 4
Spending quality time with your kids is important, minus the guilt of balancing work and mundane household chores.
Reason # 5
You get to relax! Relax on your workload, kiddy nap times, bedtimes, clothes washing, dishes … all of this is easier to ignore when you’re on holiday and not in your own home.
Reason # 6
Kids are the best icebreakers EVER. Other people will notice that your kids are cute and come over and tell you. No-body can resist chatting to a toddler or smiling back at a baby.
Reason # 7
Modelling to your children the value of working for and saving money is an important life lesson.
Reason # 8
If you wait until the kids grow up, it might be too late. Nobody can predict the future or their health.
Reason # 9
Both yourself and your little people will discover new things to love from exposure to different foods, culture, music, architecture and style.
Reason # 10
You will really regret it if you don’t!
