toddler friendly holidays/vacations?




BAMitsABII


just want a list of a few places and what attractions they have, i don't want a 10 page travel guide please :l
live in the UK, preferably wanting to go abroad



Answer
well if you want to stay in the UK, try glynn barton cottages in cornwall by newquay. there cottages designed for toddlers, which have a cot, high chair, bed guards, monitors, toddler beds, child friendly crockery etc. the site also has things to do such as a indoor swimming pool, indoor soft play barn, play room full of toys, tennis court, childrens play area and climbing frames, animals to feed and eggs to collect etc
and theres loads of things around like a beach in a 30 min drive, riding stables 8 miles away, and within 15 miles theres dairlyland farm world, crealy adventure park and within 20 miles theres a newquay blue reef aqaurium, newquay zoo and water world

lapland - only a 3 hour flight and loads to do, such as see santa, snowmobile rides (children can ride in the things that trail behind tho i dont know what there called) reindeer rides, husky rides, tobogganing etc and im sure if you wrap your toddler up warm he/she will love it and love the snow
loads of websites for holidays in lapland although i recommend http://bookings.firstchoice.co.uk/lapland/

paris - i think its only a 2 hour flight and loads of stuff to do too, a main one is disneyland, theres another theme park like parc asterix (all designed for kids), sight seeing such as going up the eiffel tower although i hope your toddler isn't afraid of heights! go for a cruise on the river seine, kids science museum called cité des sciences et de l'industrie or maybe a zoo called parc zoologique de paris

or again just stay in the uk and go to butlins which has swiming pools, free fun fair, golf, go karts, shows and entertainment on all the time etc

hope i help and have a nice holidayy x

Getting a toddler ready for the beach?




Johnny's M


We are going on a 4 day, 3 night trip to the beach in the next few weeks. I'm a *planner* so I'd like to go ahead and start getting a mental list going as to what I'm going to need to take for Johnny (18 months). This is his first time going to the beach - and I've never really been to the beach with a toddler before.

Any suggestions on what to bring?
Spank me Grandmother - I like how you think.

(LOL)
And.......... No thumbs down from me!



Answer
ahhhhh, lil chubby cheeks is hitting the beach!!! us too we're going june 20th!! i took ayden last year though too when he was one and he HATED the beach!!! hahahaha.. it was too funny... he LOVED the pool at the hotel though!
definitely alot of sunscreen!!!
if your place has a pool i'd recommend getting one of them float things they can sit in, even the one that has the mesh, or netting overhead to block the sun! ayden had a lil truck thing and he loved it.. so much fun.
i'd also say get an umbrella for the beach... you wanna be able to get him outta the sun if you can...
definitely beach toys so he can play in the sand.. he might be a lil shocked by the sand at first cause it gets all over them and they don't know what to do!!!
those fishing hats are great for their lil faces!!
blankets
towles
ummm?? let me think?? i'm sure i can thing of a ton more!!
i'm sure you have a bathing suit for him but grab one of them surffer shirts they're great for the little ones, keeps them covered and great material for being wet!
i big bag to carry all this crap!

one thing i learned about myself when having my child at the beach is it is NO LONGER relaxing for you! hahaha i love nothing more than sitting on the beach in a nice beach chair and reading a book.. no more.. your constantly playing with them, watching what they're getting into, making sure they're not burning, etc.. hahaha.. i was sweating my butt off and i was covered in sand! ha..

oh another thing.. make sure you wear something versitile (spell??) something your comfortable in so you can sit without worrying that your stuff is hanging out! that you can bend, run, crawl, crouch, and pick him up comfortably in!!!
you'll be stressed enough with him you don't want to constantly be worring that your boobs are gonna pop out and if your butt cheek is out!!!! ahhahahaha...
