If you are already at the “Why” phase you would have learnt by now that a little preparation goes a long way and will certainly maintain you sane and able to enjoy your break.

Travelling after the initial excitement can be boring for young kids, so you need to keep them entertained. My son is very happy just with a few activity books and colouring pens, but there is plenty more of travelling games you can use like magnetic games or card guessing games to be enjoyed as family fun.

The FridgePlay Goplay Bundle is great to entertain more than one child; the set includes Chinese checkers, hangman and four-in-a-row.
