NEW to the web in January of this year, Trekaroo is "the fun way to get the inside scoop on traveling with children. With thousands of kid-friendly activities and places to stay, Trekaroo is the resource for parents to find reviews, get tips, ask questions, and connect with like-minded travelers around the world. Trekaroo exists to be a place where families inspire and equip other families to travel and explore the world."
This site is a perfect place to share your travel experiences, filter through other families' travel experiences, share tips on traveling with kids, book vacations, ask questions or write reviews about your favorite (or not so favorite) places and why.
You can also read Trekaroo's Blog, find them on facebook, or follow them on twitter.
Currently they have a contest going on (we'd LOVE to win!!) - heck, it's worth a try! We recommend visiting Trekaroo and seeing what you can learn and how fun it can be to contribute. You'll soon be trekking around with your little ones, with the comfort of the experience and knowledge of other families like yours.
Have you seen this? (the GREEN thing in the photo to the left). This is one of the coolest inventions we've added to our 'travel gear' offerings, and we're proud to have them at KidsTravelHappy.com.
What is it exactly? Well, I'd call it a spring-loaded, 4-pronged single piece contraption that fits on most types of chairs. SO, instead of boosting the child IN the seat, the whole seat is BOOSTED.
Best of all, it folds, and the DELUXE version comes with a Travel Bag (or is sold separately, if you are partial to a different color).
We carry the GREEN (in the first photo), a NATURAL, and the CHARCOAL (which is the color that comes with the DELUXE KABOOST).
We just HAD to get one, and trust me, you'll be happy to get rid of the high chair, psyched you can pack it to grandma's house, or throw in the car for any trip to a restaurant. No more small child peering above the edge of the table (no mouth in view... we KNOW where that food is going), and no more "but I want a seat like BIG brother/sister". Brilliant!
A few last "quick facts"/selling points
sets up in seconds
improves chair stability
holds up to 300 pounds
stays attached even when you pick up the chair to move it
We LOVE when customers give us reports on the success of the items they purchased from us. Recently we received some customer feedback from a mom of a 6-month old baby girl.
"Just wanted to let you know that the toys that I ordered for our baby are her favorites! We use the bugs from the Bug Jug everyday... the squeaking ladybug cracks her up every time and as you can see from the pictures, the spider and grasshopper are fun to eat.
I love the wooden ring with the red ball in the middle - it's so simple and classic. I'm so pleased that she loves it, too. She's reached the stage where everything goes in her mouth and the wooden ring is one of her faves." Lastly, this customer claimed "I'm sure that I'll be placing another order soon as my best friend is having a baby in May. I think that she probably has a bug jug in her future, too!"
The 'Bug Jug Fill and Spill' by Melissa & Doug is a great toy to take on-the-go, or as this baby has illustrated, a perfect every day play! One just never knows what their child will 'grab onto', so to speak (will it be the wooden ring from Plan Toys?). Rest assured, at KidsTravelHappy.com we have hundreds of options, so you're sure to find something for all ages of travelers.
Do you have something you've purchased from us, that you've documented - with fun 'action' photos like these? We'd love to see and to hear all about it! Please email us with your experiences or suggestions, and you may very well see someone YOU recognize in our next BLOG!
