The answer to my prayers? - By: J. J. Hobbins, 16 May 2008 
Like a lot of people we used to travel a lot before having kids. Now with children aged one & three we've been trying to work out the best way to holiday as a family i.e. how the kids can be happy, we can get a well deserved relaxing break, & we can have fun as a family. Not an easy thing to do. I've picked up a few of these books & they've never really got the balance right, they're either not practical enough, or they're so practical they take the fun out of the idea travelling with young a family.
This book gets it just right. It's beautifully produced, which makes it a pleasure to read. The advice & guidance is full of practical stuff, but deliveredin a way that's meant to give you the inspiration & confidence to get on & book that trip.
I've just booked a two week holiday for our family on the back of this book - so they'd better be right!
A lovely, useful book - By: Barbara Good, 28 Mar 2008 Having bought most of the books about travelling with children, I like this one the most. It is colourful, useful & interesting, providing a good mix of locations from the more local to the far flung, whilst accepting that it can't cover everything.I love the pages of kids stuff, & there's a good balance of the useful & fun. It's so colourful & exciting I get enthusiastic about the travel possibilities for my family every time I open it. It's definitely destined to be one of the books on my shelf that is slightly grubby & falling apart through so much use!!
Read this book before you plan your holiday - By: A. Hawley, 24 Jan 2008 If you want some new ideas about where to go & what to do on a family holiday this is the book for you. It is a fantastic reference book to the world & you are guaranteed to find some new ideas no matter how much you've travelled & whether you're planning to stayin the UK or Europe or to venture further.
The book looks great, is wonderfully designed & easy to dipin to. It is packed with practical information making it easy to organise a holiday yourself & gives loads of top tips about places to visit & things to do. There's also some great ideas about books to read, games to play & things that you can do with your kids to get themin the mood for your chosen destination.
I have always enjoyed travelling but since having children have sometimes felt stuck for ideas. Having bought this book I feel the world has opened up again!
Brilliant - By: C. Jenkins, 12 Jan 2008 What a Great book!
Hugely informative, extremely comprehensive with fantastic illustrations.
Great as a guide, reassuring for parents but also a wondefully fun book to share with your children.
What family with kids would not have this bookin their house to keep with your passports as a critical holiday item?. Well done to the author!
beautiful and informative - By: Jane, 15 Dec 2007 This weighty reference is an inspirational guide, & I can see it empowering parents to travel further & more intrepidly with the little'uns. It is brim-full of ideas for the whole family & I love the suggested reads for the kids, as well as projects for the brood. The photos are gorgeous & it is a pleasure to simply leaf through & imagine....sunshine, kids contentedly gathering shells or frollicking. 'Your Child Abroad: a travel health guide' would be its perfect partner.
