“Each day of our lives we make deposits in the memory banks of our children.” – Charles R Swindoll
As parents, our lives have become very busy. A week has passed, a month, and before you even know it, you are yet again preparing for another birthday celebration for your children.
So what should we do to press pause? Travel.
Every parent knows that traveling with kids is as daunting as it is exciting, but it will surely be one of the best trips a family should ever take.
There’s just so many advice people can hear and say when traveling as a family. Let me tell you which ones top my list
- Plan ahead.
Keep your children entertained, but don’t make your trips regimented. It is important to know the places that you can visit so you can go whenever the feeling of wanderlust kicks in.
- Keep it simple.
Simple is special. Go somewhere near or far, travelling doesn’t have to be a thousand miles away from your hometown.

- Choose your home away from home
Whenever you will spend a night away from home, choose an accommodation that will cater to all your and your children’s needs. This is important as it sets the mood of the family as the day begins and embraces each of you with warm comfort at the end of each adventure-filled day.
Choose the newest premium hotel in the city when you come to Naga. Stay at The Litton Hotel, and make your stay one of the best core memories your child will keep for a really long time.
