Flying with Kids
Since 2006 my daughter and I have traveled several times to Europe. Each trip was a very
different experience. When my daughter was just a little baby, the trips were a breeze. But once
she started crawling, it became a whole different ball game. Forget about watching a movie,
reading a book or let alone taking a nap. Each trip meant 8 hours non-stop work for me. But over
time I learned a few tricks, tried out new gear and got a lot wiser. I hope my experience will make
your flight a little easier.
