At this age, the child can already be considered a full-fledged member of the tourist group. You can quite expect from your child a serious attitude to the trip and even a little help.
Instructions
Step 1
Purchase a separate backpack or trolley case for his personal belongings. There are special lightweight organizer bags for children. Let the child get ready for the trip on his own.
Step 2
Involve him in the planning of the trip and planning the "cultural program". Schoolchildren, even first-graders, are well versed in cards, and most importantly, they do it with pleasure, so the child's help can become very tangible.
Step 3
Give instructions to your child in case you accidentally lose each other. Specify the meeting place (under the clock, at the scoreboard, at the ticket offices). This will give the child confidence and help not to get confused if he suddenly loses sight of you. Put cards with your contact numbers in the pockets of your child's clothes.
Step 4
As entertainment for the child, a player, a tablet will be enough. But do not let your child go headlong into the virtual world: from time to time draw his attention to pressing, utilitarian tasks: ask him to read in the guidebook about the place you are going to, find information on the Internet about hotels, attractions, places of entertainment, etc. NS.
Step 5
Secretly put some pleasant surprise in the child's luggage, and upon arrival inform him about it: it will become much more interesting for him to disassemble his things, and you will get at least half an hour of free time.
