Special Traveling Tips
Traveling with children can be difficult; traveling with a special needs child can be a nightmare! However, if you are prepared ahead of time, it can (almost) be a breeze.
Two weeks before the travel date, I create a columned checklist of what to bring on the trip for the entire family. One week before the trip, I pull out the suitcases and start to pack some items. As items enter the suitcase, they are checked off the list. If you are staying with family members or friends, ask them if they have certain items, such as a hair dryer, you can borrow so you do not have to over pack.
If you are flying for vacation, explain to your travel agent or ticket agent that you have a special needs child and need to be seated up front and near the bathrooms of the plane.
