Children on Holiday

Being on holiday with children can be exciting and carry wonderful memories for years to come - or it can end up with parents needing a break as soon as they return home.

Think through your trip before you go to anticipate every eventuality and be prepared!

• Think ahead of your child to prevent accidents - many countries do not have the same health and safety regulations you have at home.

• Take medication with you if you are unfamiliar with local medicines - child paracetamol, rehydration fluid, travel sickness medicine etc.
  Also take a copy of your repeat prescription if your child is on any medication should you need more medication while away, play safe and get enough from you Doctor before you leave.

• When travelling across time zones try to get your child adjusted as quickly as possible to the time with plenty of fresh air and meals at local times on arrival.
