Here in the UK we have had some beautiful freezing mornings, roaring fires, mince pies, lists for Santa, tree decorations and Christmas cards, all making this a delightful time of the year.
Our Nannies too are getting excited to start their journeys to their winter destination, to explore and get acquainted with the local amenities, to ensure that you get the most out of your holiday. Check out our new Nanny profiles at https://www.merinannies.com/index.php/our-service-nannies/nannies and keep an eye out for them in resort spotting their new uniforms and rucksacks. They are also getting prepared with craft activities to keep your little ones occupied indoors.
A few handy tips for travelling with the kids (first time)
Travelling– the flights to your ski destination are fairly short, iPads/tablets are great to occupy your children in this time. Be prepared and download a few new games or a new film to capture their attention for more than 10 minutes! Snow books, Monty goes skiing is a lovely one, any winter books, or just scrap paper to draw a picture about skiing or what they think their nanny will look like. Sticker books are a great favourite too and there are many on the market around this time of year!
Make it an adventure! Especially if this is your child’s first time travelling. Wrap small gifts to let them open along the journey. It can be anything from a new pack of colouring crayons, to their favourite snack.
Don’t leave home without! a change of clothes in your hand luggage. We hope it never happens to you, but luggage can get lost, so a spare set of clothes is very useful and takes one of the holiday stresses away!
Child essentials for your ski holiday
Always have water & snacks to hand.
Good fitting gloves, goggles & sunglasses. If you get the children to try these things on before they go away that can be extremely useful too.
Gloves that can be attached together or mittens. And WATERPROOF. There is nothing worse than cold hands.
Clothing layers, it goes from hot to cold and vice versa very quickly.
The one thing to pack extra would be nappies & baby wipes – they can be very expensive in resort.
Transfers can be long & windy – medication for travel with sick children.
Entertainment for the journeys!
