Despite what you may think, I don't just spend my days thinking about my next family adventure. Rather, I spend them seeking out new hot spots for jet-setting couples as deputy editor of 2: The Magazine for Couples.
We just gave birth to our fall/winter 2009 issue, and in it, contributor Shelley White offers some great tips on travelling with the wee ones. Her tips include incorporating kid-friendly activities in your itinerary, booking a suite (I second that) so you and your significant other can chillax while your baby sleeps, giving each other the opportunity to trip solo for a break and considering backup, such as uncles and aunties who are also parents or (gasp) the in-laws. I especially love her suggestion to check out Colleen Dunn Bates' Storybook Travels, a book that turns kid-lit classics into travel guides (think Harry Potter’s London). Can't wait to check it out for myself!
