Hotel services for kids

When on vacation check out kid services at other hotels.

Just because you’re staying in one hotel doesn’t mean that you can’t visit another - especially if the other hotel has kids’ offerings.

Do some Googling or talk to your travel agent to check out competing hotels’ programs.

Setting up coloring for kids

Hang the paper on the wall (or a wall easel or kid’s floor easel ). On the floor, by the paper, place pillows, cushions, or mats.

Have the children stand on the soft surface to color. This will help the children with their balance.

Air travel comfort for toddlers

Many parents find that bulkhead seating at the front of each section provides more comfort while traveling with a toddler.

These seats have no seating in front of them and allow for more leg room, ability to change the baby, and room to stand or play for the toddler.

Coloring on the floor
