Ahhh, spring break. That time of year when
children across the country cry with delight at
the thought of ditching the books f or a week,
and parents scream in terror at the prospect
of having to entertain their kids when still in
the midst of winter. It's little wonder that
many parents opt to travel during the break.
But while warmer climes may lessen parents'
cabin f ever, travel brings with it a whole
other host of kid-sized stresses. But lif estyle
expert, author, and f requent flyer, Tina
O'Connor knows there is an easier way to
travel with f amily in tow.
"It needn't be nearly as stressful as we make it. The problem is that most of us
just plop an empty suitcase on the bed and f ill 'er up, without really thinkingabout it," says O'Connor, herself the mother of three young children and the
author of B e T h a t M o m . "What happens then is you end up over-packing things
you don't really need, and under-packing the things you do."
Through her own trial and error Tina has developed what she likes to think of as
the 'magic suitcase' approach to packing. It's has less to do with the world of
Harry Potter than it does with basic geometry and getting the right organizers.
"By using packing cubes and designated organizers you're going to have exactly
what you need every time. It's a bit like playing luggage tetris! You need to f igure
out what shapes and sizes are going to actually f it in your suitcase. Once you've
done it once, you never have to do it again, you'll always know, even on yourreturn trip, what space you have available in your suitcase."
Tina recommends that each member of the f amily have their own set of luggage and organizers, each designated f o
specif ic items. Her 'magic suitcase' demos have proven popular with both parents and children, as it allows f or older
kids to participate in their own travel preparations.
A huge host of travelling tips are available in B e T h at M o m , available from new hybrid publishing house B e T h a t
