I just love March break, there’s no school and we are free to travel with the kids and explore. I think they really do need the break! In all the excitement, it’s really important to make sure you’re prepared before you rush out the door. It’s all about contingency planning – think about the things that could go wrong and planning for them so you don’t waste a minute of your precious family time on common (and avoidable!) vacation fails. Whether you’re hitting the slopes or a water slide, make the most of your time off with these simple tips.
Don’t underestimate the sun.
Protecting your skin is so important. You don’t want to get skin cancer, nor do you want to spoil your fun in the moment with a burn. Did you know UV rays reach the Earth year-round and surfaces like snow can reflect 85 per cent of the sun’s rays back at you? Yikes! To protect your face and avoid the dreaded ski goggle sunburn, try using Coppertone ClearlySheer Lotion for Face. Its sheer, non-greasy formula will help protect your skin from the sun without weighing you down. You also won’t have a racoon-like burn on your face, which is a win.
Getting sunscreen on a kid can be like trying to give your cat a pill. If you head to warmer climates, sunscreen is important too. If your kids love water, but hate standing still for sunscreen (like a lot of kids do,) try Coppertone Kids Sunscreen Continuous Spray. The easy, full coverage application will keep your children protected from harmful UV rays while making sunscreen time fun! It kind of tickles!
Tag that bag.
Arriving somewhere without your luggage is the worst. You can’t prevent luggage from getting lost, but you can make the return process much easier. Make sure you buy some luggage tags with a durable covering to protect your information, this will make it easier for the person who finds your luggage to return it. You really want durability here, so look for a strong clasp that can withstand being tossed around from plane to carousel. Pro tip: take a pair of sandals and a bathing suit in your carry-on so at least you can sit poolside while you wait for your lost luggage to arrive while you’re on March Break.
Restore your body’s rhythm.
Your tummy might not love vacation food as much as your taste buds do, so be ready. Almost 40 per cent of people experience vacation constipation as gut bacteria reacts and adjusts to the change in setting[i]. Bathroom trouble can put a damper on your otherwise relaxing time off. You want more time on the beach or the slopes and less time in the loo.
Be prepared and bring along some pre-measured, single dose RestoraLAX NeatPAX for convenient occasional constipation relief. RestoraLAX dissolves easily in any beverage with no taste and no grit. It helps restore your body’s natural rhythm by working with water to hydrate and soften stools.
What are some of your vacation preparation tricks that ensure your family March Break getaway its nothing short of amazing?
