Mamanista.com announces 2008 Tips for Traveling with Babies and Children
Mom-owned company helps parents travel in safety and style with their children.
Berwyn, PA, July 14, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Traveling with children can be a joy if planned properly.
According to separate surveys by American Express, AAA, and CNN, more parents are taking their children along with them on vacations and business trips, including trips out of the country.
Mamanista.com has published a guide to traveling with your children complete with lightweight gear, must have toys, and plenty of travel tips and tricks.
“With her grandparents living in another state, my daughter had flown cross-country before she was even six months’ old,” explained Candace Lindemann, co-founder of Mamanista.com, “Parents want to be able enjoy many of their favorite activities as a family. And with a little flexibility and patience, they can.”
Pediatricians can provide parents with guidance on when a child is healthy enough for travel and sites like Mamanista.com share advice on how to ensure the trip goes smoothly.
Ms. Lindemann lists some of her favorites from the guide: “The inexpensive but indispensible Boon Snack Ball keeps snacks crispy. I cannot imagine taking along a toddler car seat without the Go Go Kidz Travelmate. And the Peapod Travel Bed, a lightweight tent, is a perfect way to ensure you’ll have a safe spot for your baby to sleep.”
Specialized boutiques, such as Little Jet Set, have sprung up with selections for today’s family on the go. Nisha T. Cordero, Co-Founder of Little Jet Set, emphasizes the need to plan child-friendly activities, especially while in transit: “While we can’t control the delays at the airport or bumper-to-bumper traffic, we can manage how our children respond to these challenging circumstances by offering games, toys, books, and other activities to keep little hands and big imaginations engaged.” Several of the products available at Little Jet Set, are listed on Mamanista.com as travel must-haves, like the Trunki wheeled suitcase that children can also use as a ride-on.
Experts like Dr. Sears and Kristen Gallagher, owner of the babywearing store Along for the Ride, also emphasize the importance of baby carriers for safe, hands-free carrying. Ms. Gallagher says, “Babywearing can still make travel easier. With your baby strapped on, you can easily work your way through crowds.”
Parents should make sure to check FAA travel regulations if they plan on flying and should also make sure they will be in compliance with foreign safety laws if they go abroad.
By highlighting these products and offering advice, Mamanista.com helps parents travel with children in safety and style.
Readers have already found the guide indispensible. One reader exclaimed, “Wow! This is so helpful and insightful. Thanks for all the wonderful advice!” Another reader added, “Thanks for such a vast amount of valuable information […] it’s exactly what I was looking for […]”
As an added bonus, Mamanista.com has partnered with several boutiques and manufacturers to offer contests to coincide with the launch of their guide.
