]]>Always ask for assistance with your toddler especially if you are traveling alone. You can ask travelers or staff to help with placing your luggage in the overhead compartment.
There’s a lot to do while traveling by air. You need to get checked in, go through airport security and board the plane. These activities can be stressful for the child, but if you remain calm, the toddler will follow.
Pack extra diapers and other essential items such as blankets, toys, formula, food, a diaper-changing pad, pacifiers, extra clothes, baby wipes and plastic bags. Don’t pack too many items because you will be carrying the bag.
Nurse your baby during the flight to help soothe it when it gets cranky. The noise can also make the baby cranky.
Bathrooms in planes are too small. You may have trouble changing her diapers on the plane even if there is a changing table available.
Going on a trip with your toddler can be a stress-free affair if you plan ahead of time.

]]>You’ll need to choose a car seat based on your child’s age, weight and size. Definitely try it out in the store before you buy it. Also, you’ll need to check your car safety seat instructions to find the weight and height limits for rear-facing seats. Some types allow up to the weight of at least 35 pounds.
Here are 3 types of car seats which will possibly suit your needs.
These ones are suitable for children who are 2 years or older and who have outgrown the rear-facing weight or height limit for their car safety seat.
Booster seats are good for children whose weight or height is above the forward-facing limit. Booster seats are designed to raise your child so that the lap and shoulder seat belts fit properly.
Seat belts are suitable for children who are between ages 8 and 12. The seat belt should fit properly with the lap belt lying across the child’s upper thighs and the shoulder belt across the chest.
