A wildlife sanctuary, ancient caves, and some truly extraordinary views, Wayanad is a perfect holiday destination in India. This is a great place for a family vacation as it has something for everyone – an adventure enthusiast, a history buff, or someone who is just looking for a break from the city.
Got Wayanad on your mind? Good choice! Travelling with kids? Even better. However, check this list to know what essential items to pack if you are holidaying with your children.
1. First-aid kit
Exploring the beauty of Wayanad will require you to indulge in several physical activities. There is always the danger of meeting with minor mishaps, maybe on a trek or while sightseeing. Carrying a first-aid kit with essentials such as cotton, band-aids, antiseptic cream, and basic medicines is recommended during family holidays.
2. Snacks
Travelling with kids and caught without snacks to munch on? Unthinkable! It’s a good idea to stock up on your child’s favourite snacks, especially when you are on a family vacation as you will be spending a lot of time outdoors. While sightseeing, one may lose track of time and meals could be delayed. Having some ready-to-eat snacks ready in your bag will ensure the kids enjoy the holiday as much as you do.
3. Cards or board games
You’ve chosen where to stay among the many Wayanad resorts and now you have a long journey ahead. We all know that kids tend to get bored easily and not everyone’s interest is piqued by books. Don’t let smartphones take over. Carry some fun games such as Uno, Taboo, Pictionary, or Monopoly. Time will fly. Not just for the kids; you too will find yourself caught up in one game after another.
4. Coloring books and crayons
For many kids, a colouring book and a set of crayons are all they need to keep themselves busy. You can make a fun activity out of it, by asking them to sketch what they see around them. You can take our word for it that Wayanad is an ideal holiday destination in India that offers more than a few opportunities for the budding artist in your child.
