Pearland Pediatric Dentistry present: 10 helpful summer traveling tips


Have you been planning that perfect family vacation this summer? Drs. Clark and Reddy know that summer is the season when many families choose to hit the open road—or catch a flight—to make those memories together. That’s why we want to share with you a few summer travel tips, courtesy of Cassandra James from Associated Content:

1. Make sure your kids are busy if you're going on a long car ride.

2. Don't ignore your kids during the trip - play guessing games, car number plate games, memory games, etc.

3. Choose the shortest way there

4. If you're flying, avoid layovers (long layovers can bore a child)

5. Don't forget to stop (take a break from driving every 2-3 hours)

6. Pre-board planes - give yourself and your kids a few extra minutes to get settled in

7. If possible, travel at night for your sanity's sake :)

8. Try to stop off at fun and interesting places.

9. Get to know your kids - start a conversation, ask about their friends, etc.

10. Make sure your kids are wearing comfortable clothes during your trip.


We encourage you to read the rest of Cassandra's article! We hope you’re having a fabulous summer!
