Moving with children Moving is often an emotionally turbulent time for children, between home hunting, packing and disconnection notices it is easy to overlook the young child. Even a young toddler can help pack their room. Give them a box and let them pitch in. Don't worry about the mess, you can always repack after they are asleep. Pack up your child's room last so he/she has a comforting and safe place to play and sleep preceding the move. Put their boxes last in the moving truck so they are the first ones off and can be unpacked in the new room before anything else. Take a Travel kit filled with clothes, snacks and favourite toys so you aren't searching boxes frantically looking for "Kitty" or "Blankie". As tempting as it may seem, don't throw out any old toys unless you're sure your child won't be asking for them in the new home. When it comes time for moving try to keep things as much the same as before. Giving up a crib, starting preschool or relinquishing a bottle will prove to be difficult on top of adjusting to moving in the first place. |
