- Check on weight, height, and age limits: Some activities, such as zip-lining, horseback riding, and kayaking, have them.
- Leaving the electronics at home (or at least, in your hotel room) may be a bit of a challenge, but it forces kids to interact with their environment.
- Have rainy-day plans in place: A science museum or aquarium is always a good choice.
- Update your first aid and travel comfort kit.
