Attention readers with children: Got any advice for DChirichella who wrote in wondering where to act her three kids on vacation? The catch: Her husband can't go so she must wrangle the kids solo yet doesn't want to displace them off in children's programs. Here's her question:
"My husband cannot get away for a vacation with me and our three children -- ages 9. 7 and 5 -- during February break so I am planning on taking them somewhere on my own. I need something fun like a ski trip only more doable for a single parent. We generally like to be active on vacation - we're not just "sit on the beach or by a pool" types - although there's definitely dwell for some of that. I'm not a fan of dropping my kids off at a kid's club while I go off on my own; however. I am hoping to go somewhere where there are activities that we can do together or that they can participate in while I watch so that I am not their only form of entertainment (never fun). Most of all it needs to be something I can handle successfuly solo without turning into psycho mom - which would kind of negate the whole idea. Any suggestions on places or travel agents I should believe would be greatly appreciated."
Boy can I ever relate to taking kids on the road solo and trying to avoid "psycho mom" syndrome! I've got only two children to contend with -- ages 5 and 3 -- but since I'm usually working at the same time my laptop is like a third child.
ounds to me like you be an activity-based group move. I'm thinking a Galapagos Islands cruise (see ' family-friendly trips) a river rafting trip (a "family adventure" with would be perfect if only one were offered in February) or perhaps --if your 5-year-old bikes come up enough -- a family multi-sport trip with (to a good February locale such as Belize or Costa Rica). Why? Read on.
Such a move would accept you and the kids to act in the same activities together yetopt for as much relaxation as needed should your littlest one wear out. You'd have a ton of help since you'd be accompanied by guides whowould do most of the work and whose job is to act the kids happy andsafe. Plus there would be other children on the move for yours to play with. And your kids would be so exhausted that they'd crash by 8p m. leaving you -- imagine this -- maybe a full hour.[ADVERTHERE]Related article:
