Itโ€™s important to prioritize safety when traveling with your little one. Make sure that they are securely buckled up in their car seat, and check that the car seat is installed correctly. Stay alert and focused while driving, and take breaks when needed. If your child is prone to motion sickness, be sure to bring medicine and take precautions such as keeping the car cool and avoiding heavy meals before the trip.
