How to do vacations (with small children) (lemmy.world)

I’m looking for any hints on how to go on enjoyable and relaxing vacations with two small children. The kids are 4 and 10months and the four year old is very energetic. Somehow so far everything we tried wasn’t in a way that both parents enjoyed it too much. So we’re happy to learn from your experience. Bonus if it’s not too expensive.

We went a long way to visit grandparent with our 1y3mo , and the biggest thing is to have a way to keep them occupied and find or create a safe place to let them loose.

Not sure ho to deal with the 4yo yet.

Just being there, and with a baby you’re quite busy as well. Accidents happen, so with some hiccups we avoided any major issues (but it could have been more relaxing for us).
