Our Traveling Tots

Are you road-tripping around the US? Leaving your home state? Or visiting the US for the first time and renting a car? It’s important to know that not all states have the same unleaded regular octane level! Most states have 87 as the lowest rating, but areas with higher elevation have 85 as their lowest rating. This includes: ⛽️ Wyoming ⛽️ Colorado ⛽️ Idaho ⛽️ New Mexico ⛽️ Montana Not all cars can tolerate the 85 rating, so do research on your car before traveling to these areas! ——————————— ➕ FOLLOW @ourtravelingtots for more travel tips 💬 COMMENT below if you have a question 💌 SHARE this post to your stories and show your friends and family 📥 SAVE this post for future reference 🏷️ TAG us if you use our tips 🤍 • • • #familytravel #familytraveltips #travelwithkids #toddlertravel #adventurewithkids #momlife #motherhood #travelhack #roadtrip #roadtriphack

Traveling to Europe this summer? 🌍 Don’t forget to research and consider these 🖐🏼 things: 1️⃣ Power outlets - Be sure to pack plug adapters and voltage converters. Research the plug type for your destination. REMINDER: The UK and mainland Europe have different plugs, so make sure your adapter has the right pieces! 🔌💡⚡️ 2️⃣ Currency - While most credit and debit cards are widely accepted around the world, knowing and understanding currency is important! HINT: Not all of Europe uses Euros! 💶🪙 3️⃣ Transportation - Research transportation for your destination! Consider all types, planes, trains, subways, taxis, boats, etc. Research how to pay for said transportation, and how to find/use it before your trip. TIP: When traveling with children, be sure to research if car seats are required and if there are specifications. 🚇🚋🚕 4️⃣ Dining - Knowing and understanding differences in dining etiquette, style, times, portions, and tipping is important. EXAMPLE: Unlike in the US where water is *usually* free with your meal, that is often not the case in Europe. 🥤🍽️🧂 5️⃣ Conversion App - You’re going to want to download a reliable conversion app that converts *at least* currency, measuring units, and speed. 📏🚦🫗 So, with all that being said, WHERE ARE YOU GOING?? We want to know, and make sure to tag us in all your European travels 📸 ——————————— ➕ FOLLOW @ourtravelingtots for more travel tips 💬 COMMENT below if you have a question 💌 SHARE this post to your stories and show your friends and family 📥 SAVE this post for future reference 🏷️ TAG us if you use our tips 🤍 • • • #familytravel #familytraveltips #travelwithkids #toddlertravel #adventurewithkids #momlife #internationaltravel #europetravel Family Travel Tips | Traveling with Kids | Family-friendly Activities | Traveling with Toddlers | International Travel | Travel Hacks | Flying with Kids

We all know that having the tray table constantly opened & closed behind you is not the most fun thing 🥴 When my son discovered that the tray tables opened, he was ruthless with it and it was not a fun battle. They key to this hack was putting the tape on before he got to the seat so he didn’t realize that it could easily be taken off. It worked so well 👏🏼 We love traveling with a little bit of tape to cover outlets, light switches, door locks, and more!

Aloha, beaches🏝️ If you’re planning your Kauai vacation or just adding to your bucket list, you’re not going to want to miss these beaches: 1️⃣ Mahaulepu Beach - This beautiful secluded beach is located on the South Shore of the island and near Makauwahi Cave Trail. We recommend doing the short hike and finishing at the beach! 2️⃣ Hideaways Beach - Located in Princeville, this beach is quite a trek but so worth it! Be prepared for a short but steap hike. We recommend not bringing big coolers or a lot of stuff, and if bringing small children using a carrier! 3️⃣ Hanalei Pavilion Beach Park - The most accessible and largest of the the three! This beach is located in the cute beach town of Hanalei. It’s large, open, easy to get to. Grab some food from town and have a beach picnic!

Camping is a great way to travel because it is inexpensive and the locations can be even cooler than a hotel. Remember, camping with kids takes practice! We have had our fair share of long nights, feeling unprepared, and frustrations. Don’t give up after one trip - keep going! ——————————— ➕ FOLLOW @ourtravelingtots for more travel tips 💬 COMMENT below if you have a question 💌 SHARE this post to your stories and show your friends and family 📥 SAVE this post for future reference 🏷️ TAG us if you use our tips 🤍 • • • #familytravel #familytraveltips #travelwithkids #toddlertravel #adventurewithkids #momlife #motherhood #camping #campingwithkids

Here is what you need to know about traveling to Zion National Park ⬇️ [SAVE THIS POST] 🅿️ Parking in Zion can be an absolute nightmare! There is a very small lot and lots of people visiting. If you want a spot in the park, arrive early. 🚌 Shuttle system - prepare to be patient (the lines can get long) but this system is awesome. There are two shuttle lines, one takes you through Springdale and the other through the park. Keep in mind that it can be a long trek back to the car so have lots of snacks, diapers, water, sunscreen, and whatever else you need with you. 🏔️ Be prepared for trail closures and permit requirements. On our last trip the Narrows were closed due to high water levels. 🍕The lodge is a great place for lunch! Tons of open space, drinks, and reasonably priced food options. We always love this stop. Additionally, there is a small store if you wanted to purchase and souvenirs. Stay tuned for tips on where to stay and a sample itinerary! ——————————— ➕ FOLLOW @ourtravelingtots for more travel tips 💬 COMMENT below if you have a question 💌 SHARE this post to your stories and show your friends and family 📥 SAVE this post for future reference 🏷️ TAG us if you use our tips 🤍 • • • #familytravel #familytraveltips #travelwithkids #toddlertravel #adventurewithkids #momlife #motherhood #zion #zionnationalpark #visitutah
