Travelling is stressful enough, but when you add in a young child, your travelling issues double.  There are many different things to keep in mind when you travel with a young child so that your trip will be both enjoyable and kid-friendly. First, be aware that you’ll have to pack more luggage.  You’ll need nappies, baby bottles, and other things like baby powder.  Most of these items will need to go in your carry-on bag so you can get to them quickly while travelling.  That means you may have to check an extra bag or take larger luggage to accommodate everything. You also need to check with your lodging to see if they have cots or a baby bed available.  Some do, but some do not, and if they don’t, you may need to make other arrangements.  If you’re renting a car and don’t want to take a car seat with you, you may need to make arrangements with the rental company.  Some actually include car seats if requested. You may also need to adjust your sightseeing activities if you’re travelling with a baby.  You won’t be able to do as much since you’ll have to feed and change your baby and do activities during which he or she can nap.  Going to events like the theatre or a concert may not be possible, either, if your baby is fussy.  You don’t want his or her crying to interrupt the event, after all. While travelling with a baby can be a bit stressful, it can also be very enjoyable.  Travelling with your family is fun, but it does mean adjusting how you travel just a bit.
