1. Don't pack 25 different movies to keep them amused because they will just watch the same one over and over for 12 hours.
2. Coat the children's hands with glue after putting them into carseats so you won't have to retrieve toys, water bottle lids, and snacks every 2 minutes from the floor of the van.
3. Tether children's feet to the base of carseat to stop kicking.
4. Realize ahead of time that regardless of what restaurant you choose-every children's menu is the same and they won't want any of it-but will scream hunger immediately after you have paid for the meal they didn't eat.
5. Instructions given to children are not-transferable. For example: "Do not climb under the restaurant table" must be explained for each table at each restaurant for each child. Or: "Do not roll your toy cars on the lobby floor" must be explained anew every day, each time the lobby is passed through on the way in and on the way out to each child.
Keep these things in mind and all members of your family can have a great time!!
