Whether you're visiting a national park, a great beach, or just making a quick weekend getaway this summer, these travel tips will help you rest easy and make your hotel stay extra kid-friendly.Safety First
Remember that many hotels are built for business travelers, not baby travelers so, if you're bringing a little one along, consider bringing some of the baby-proofing "comforts" of home with you. Little things like outlet covers won't take up much space in your bag and will give you peace of mind as your crawler explores his new surroundings. For bigger kids, remind them that home rules apply for hotels, too - don't open the door to strangers and don't leave the door open or unlocked.
Be Specific When Making Your Reservation
If you need a crib, ask for it before you arrive, not when you're checking in. If you need a mini-fridge to keep the morning milk cold, confirm it ahead of time. You should also ask about the maximum occupancy of the room you reserved before you arrive.
Pack Wisely, But Don't Pack It All
While we'd all like to take a break from laundry, it pays to pack light and do a load on the road - especially when you consider the high cost of checking bags and limited real estate in rental cars. Find out what your laundry options are before you go, whether it's hotel laundry service or a nearby laundromat.
