Product Description
This book is a gold mine! Do your self a favor and buy one for yourself and a few more to have on hand for gifts in the future!!! I consider myself pretty well organized when it comes to travel with our son, but this book gave me so many more ideas and tips. Well worth it, and enjoyable to read!
I recently purchased several books on traveling with children, and this was by far the best. By the time I finished the book, I had several pages of notes written down, including things to pack that I never thought of, things to do before I go, products to check out and websites to visit. Reading this book has made me feel much more prepared and less nervous for my upcoming trip to France with a 15 month old, and I am confident that our trip can only go smoother having read this one!
A must-have resource for families on the go. Interesting reading and packed with helpful tips. Easy-to-use charts to help families find the best airlines, ships, etc. for their specific needs. Perfect gift for parents of young children!
Seriously, this is a travel bible for new parents. What a huge help this book has been from selecting a good stroller (wished we would have found this BEFORE we had our baby for car seat info too!) to calling ahead to find out if a hotel has a crib saving our trunk space from a pack and play or other. Prepping the diaper bag and carry ons have never been simpler and I have memorized the shopping list for baby must haves while traveling. Never would have thought of some of that stuff! The blog is excellent too. Please give this gift to new mommies and daddies with your baby shower gift...I am so grateful for the different age sections and different types of travel reviews. Thank you Ms. Rivoli!
I'm flying to Europe alone with my 18 mo old daughter next month and I found this book to be a great help in preparing for the trip. It contains a lot of useful information, tips, and things I would've completely overlooked had I not read this book.
I was given this book as a gift. I didn't think I would get much out of it because frankly, I'm a bit of a homebody--didn't love to travel before kids and certainly don't love it more now that I have two.
But we do *have* to travel several times a year to see family and "Travels With Baby", because it is so thorough, has helped make a few recent trips run more smoothly. The author is so enthusiastic and understanding of the nitty gritty of little kids' routines--I feel like I can leave home now and not get the kids too messed up from their all-important routines.
This book has actually made me excited to go to a kid-friendly resort some time in the near future. Rivoli covers the details--vaccinations, passports, etc., in such detail that there is no guess work for me. I really appreciate that.
I just picked this up for my step-brother and his wife who just had twins. They're planning their first trip to Europe, and this is going to be a great help for them, I think. When going through the book I found it to be really well organized with easy-to-find information, and a really personable/readable tone to the writing.
A great addition to any travel or parenting library.
I picked up this book since we have both a preschooler and a newborn and are planning two overseas trips in the coming year, and I have to say Rivoli is riveting! Replete with practical tips, the book also reads as a sharp travelogue and a bit of escapist literature for this blurry-eyed mom. The best aspect of this book is that it encourages parents of small children to pack their bags AND their babes and get traveling, whether to a nearby state park or 'round the world. While an unabashed travel enthusiast, Rivoli also devotes a considerable amount of the book to safety tips and precautions, and I greatly appreciated her practiced and measured tone throughout the book in discussing such considerations. It is an excellent resource and refresher for our family as we were able to do a fair number of fun trips with our older child but felt we needed expert guidance on planning a trip that included our new addition.
This is a gem of a travel book. As a new grandmother who loves to travel in the U.S., Mexico, South America and Europe, Travels with Baby offers invaluable tips that a neophite Nana might have overlooked -- from negotiating passport lines with carriers, babies, and bulky car seats to phoning ahead for info on cribs. The sections on traveling with marvelous multiples are perfect, as is the section on traveling by rail. My first proposal to the twins' parents will be a trip on the Coast Starlight - Southwest Chief to Albuquerque -- a trip that will reprise a memorable adventure I took my daughter on when she was young. (Imagine waking up in your own snug roomette to the sun rising between the buttes and mesas.) The new parents themselves love cruising and beach holidays; Shelly Rivoli provides wonderful information there, too. From cultural tips to up-to-date info and prices, this book will be a family resource. Travels with Baby: Two, please!
My 8 month-old has already been across the country coast to coast and overseas to Europe and this book has been such a blessing! If I didn't have this book I would never have known that you can request a bassinet for overseas travel and our plane ride would have been MUCH messier without Rivoli's tips for how to manage diaper changes in those tiny airplane bathrooms. The book is worth it just for the detailed chart of airlines and what all their baby perks and policies are. This is a great reference book to have on our shelves as our daughter grows.
