A few recommendations for parents.
Most people are preparing for the summer holidays and children are also looking forward to the holidays this season.
This feeling is familiar to almost all parents - when you are on public transport and your child starts to cry. A child can feel bad in a strange environment, in the company of strangers and express discomfort in simple language - sighs, cries, gets annoyed.
Here are some methods to help you travel comfortably without disturbing others.
We recommend:
- Always have with you: diapers, wet and dry wipes; Extra clothes, baby food and drink, toys, any medications (unless you treat a little and prescribe medications), an extra trash can bag;
- Dress the little person comfortably, and it will be easier for you to change the diaper, the child will not be irritated;
- On the back of the chair, you can place colorful photos, attract the attention of the child and have fun;
- If possible, avoid exposure to sunlight, hang a curtain on the window;
- Play music that is familiar to him and helps him to relax;
- Whenever possible, make the child feel familiar, do not break the regular feeding schedule just because you are not at home;
- If the baby is crying and space helps, hold the baby in your arms and, even there is a short distance, take a walk;
- Avoid noise, emotions before the trip, have your luggage ready the day before. Do not start to fuss too much before leaving the house, because a child will feel that his regime is being violated and irritated, the journey will be stressful;
- When buying a ticket, give preference to the seat next to the toilet;
- If you can, order a chair with a window, because some children enjoy looking from the window at the architecture, people or nature that are strange to them;
- Bring a puzzle (depending on the child's age), coloring notebooks, a favorite book, and more to get your attention and create comfort.
