For details on how I kept my son busy in flight, at the airports and on my Top items for travelling with kids read here Preparing your toddler for the travel I packed extremely light and kept a small backpack for myself for all the necessities, a busy bag for Vir and a JetKids Bed Box for converting Vir’s seat into a bed and ditched the umbrella stroller. Read my full review here on the JetKids Bed box and Top items to travel with here As we sat in our 1st 23-hour flight to India, Vir deleted the you tube app which had all downloaded videos! ! From the third day I started to push his sleeping time to 7pm, following by 8pm and 9pm and within 5 days he was started getting 10 hours of sleep at a stretch.

After travelling to over 6 countries and taking several long haul flights with my son when he was baby to now when he is a toddler, I have come across several brands and products that I have loved and hated. I highly recommend this JetKids Bedbox to all parents who are traveling with their kids in flights especially on long haul flights. While sleeping my son’s legs were curled up and although it helped a lot as now there was more space to sleep, the area between the seats is still limited for growing kids to stretch comfortably.

We skipped hopping into flights and avoided the holiday airport madness for a 3 and half hour road trip to Texas Hill Country. We had already been to this hill country retreat last year in summer with our friends and so it seemed perfect to also enjoy the hospitality in the winter months with our family. The resort also has large fire pits where they host camping with s’mores events , I saw it was huge hit with kids especially after pool time.

It was our first-time apple picking and we all had the best time. End of October is not the best time to visit the island as it is very cold, and the island is usually a summer getaway, but There is no surer way of connecting with the Island’s maritime heritage than by taking time to pay a visit to one or all the Island’s five lighthouses. In the end all I can say is life with kids is busy, As I learned on that first trip, there’s no better reminder to live in the moment during those too-short childhood years than a special vacation just for you and your son.this trip was the perfect bonding experience for me and my son.
