Equipping parents with an understanding that the words they speak to their children have enormous influence and a great impact on the emotional foundation of their family, ThumbPeople shares these simple strategies to make family travel a positive experience.

While maintaining a hopeful and positive outlook, plan that travel will have its stress triggers. Have some coping strategies in place for you and your children to counteract the tension of long lines, travel delays, impatient travelers and travel staff and some unexpected frustrations. In doing so, you and your children will be more able to roll with travel problems and can be happily surprised if you encounter few. The right mind-set can transform a frustrating delay into some unexpected time to enjoy sharing stories, listening to soaking music or bonding over a good children's book.

Remember that often the best family memories are made when things don't go exactly as planned. Be determined to have a spirit of thankfulness. Be thankful that you have the health to travel, the freedom to do so and the good fortune to have loved ones anticipating your arrival.

Pack light but pack a few proven stress reducers. Soaking music effectively reduces stress as it promotes relaxation, peace and a sense of well being. Positive children's books not only keep kids "busy" but remind them to make good choices, be thankful and to be their very best - all attributes that make traveling with children much more enjoyable.
