If you are going on holiday with small children, you may already be worrying about the travel. Children get bored very easily and with the added worry of tantrums or travel sickness, it can put many families off.
Maybe you have a long haul flight planned or a drive across country, either way, preparation is the key. When driving in the car for a long period of time, make sure you schedule in regular stops, not just to go to the toilet but for a change of scenery and a chance for the whole family to stretch their legs.
Planning games to play and investing in a portable DVD player could just give the children something to do to keep their mind off the travel. Making a picnic for the car will not only save on the costly motorway service station food venues but again can be quite fun.
