Toddler Talk Thursday – Toddlers on Vacation {Trips, Tips & More!}

June 22, 2011 By Emily 8 Comments

Family and Life in Las Vegas

Welcome to Week 43 of Toddler Talk Thursday! Where Family and Life in Las Vegas, Crazy about my Baybah, and My Life as a Sippy Cup Mom talk all things TODDLER!!

** If you want to follow this on twitter – or plan on tweeting your post – please use hashtag: #letstalktoddler **

Toddler Talk Thursday was created as a place for moms and dads of toddlers to come together over a weekly topic and share ideas, go-to toys, or products. It is a great way to meet other bloggers of toddlers. Each week the topic will be different; we invite you to link up, share your weekly Toddler Talk!!

Each week the hosts will travel around to each blog to see what topic your suggest for the following week. If we choose your topic – you will be our featured blog.

Keep the GREAT suggestions coming. We have an on-going list we will choose from each week. Some topics are ones we have done in the past – but that doesn’t mean we won’t revisit them!!

In order to qualify for this you need to blog about this week’s topic, and follow the hosts.

And the end of your post – suggest a topic for next week.

Comments letting us know you are participating are always great too. If we choose your blog, we will link back to your post the following week.

This week’s featured Blog is: $aving Towards A Better Life who suggested
This Week’s Topic: Vacationing With A Toddler – Share your Trips, Tips, and More!

Do you have any family vacations planned?  Are you worried, excited? Do you have any tips to share?
This summer I am really excited because Squishy, The Hubs, and I will all be taking our first vacation as a family!  Two years in the making!
Originally we were going to head to San Diego, but plans changed and we will be taking Squishy to Anaheim and Disneyland for the first time.  We will also be heading to the Queen Mary, Legoland, and maybe even Catalina Island.  (SO EXCITED!!)
Recently I took Squishy to my dad’s house in Florida.  It was a lot different than traveling with a baby.  Not only were we on a different time zone, but Squishy didn’t have his crib to sleep in, and was too big for the pack & play.  This meant 1 thing – NO NAPS!!"Travel Stroller"
He fought them tooth and nail.  I was SO exhausted from him not napping, and trying to get him to sleep.  Finally someone on twitter (I so wish I could remember who so I could give credit…) said that they experienced the same thing.  She told me that when planning family vacations they don’t worry about scheduling naps.  After a few days your child will be so exhausted they will be ready to take naps on their own. I think we will try this in California.  (I will however still plan some downtime, and have a stroller at the ready just in case!)
What about your family?  Any Vacations planned?  Any Tips to Share?

    OH, and that’s a good tip, not to stress too much about naps. 🙂

    Same experience here with the naps, we just eventually let her crash! The ERGO baby carrier is a godsend as then you just continue on your way walking around and they are comfy 🙂 Works perfect for toddlers who won’t stay in a stroller!
