Heading on a family vacation, here’s how to keep everyone’s immune systems strong.

No matter how organized you are for a family trip, one sick child can throw any vacation into chaos. Whether you’re heading to a resort or visiting relatives, if one member picks up a bug while en route, it can ruin your precious time together. In addition to washing hands, avoiding touching faces, plenty of hydration, and quality sleep, keeping your kids nutritional needs met while on the road, greatly reduces the chances of them getting ill. Here’s the easiest way to keep everyone strong and healthy whilst on holidays. 

Why Does My Child Get Sick When We Travel?

It is incredibly common for children to come down with an illness while traveling. The main reasons are disrupted eating habits and sleep patterns, resulting in a weakened immune system. Add in close contact with other travelers at airports and tourist destinations, plus new germs increases the likelihood of catching a virus. If your kid is already a picky eater, chances are they are refusing everything offered to them, and you most likely have limited access to food you know they’ll eat or a kitchen to prepare it in.
