We recently got back from a weeklong trip with 4 other families. Our group consisted of 10 adults, 5 four year olds and 3 two year olds. We had a blast. But, don’t mistake fun for rest. I wouldn’t say it was relaxing….

This is the second year we have traveled with this group. After doing this twice, I can say I wholeheartedly endorse group travel when you have little kids. BUT – you must be prepared and know what you’re getting into.

This episode will highlight my 8 lessons learned traveling with 8 kids:

Snacks all the time, everywhere
Eat in vs eating out
Meltdowns
Adult free time
Daily down time
The beauty and fallout of treats and screens
Buffer day
Nothing is as great as it seems, nothing is as bad as it seems
