Jan 22, 201910 Packing Tips for Travel
As soon as your child can walk through an airport wearing a backpack and pulling a small, wheeled suitcase, the time is right to get them to participate in packing. Sure, it’s going to take longer in the beginning. And expect some negotiating. But, each experience is a teachable “moment” as they say. (Everything is!) Trust me, by the time you blink twice, they’re going to be old enough to go to camp, visit a grandparent (without you) or stay with a cousin or a friend. What they learn to do under supervision, they will learn to do by themselves. An early start teaches them to make choices and packing goes from being a pleasant together task to their own feel-good chore, which raises a child’s self-esteem. It’s like eating, children who help prepare food, devour what they make. Likewise, including their wishes makes dressing while you are away one less thing to negotiate.
