Holiday Colony: the final list for stressless departure

While the great departure in the summer field approaches, the organization becomes a key to avoid unpleasant oversights and surprises. Three days before departure, it is time to finalize essential preparations.

Number one priority: the suitcase

Useless to overload: comfortable clothes, slippers, toiletry items, cap, sun cream and pumpkin are sufficient. Value objects must be avoided (jewels, electronic devices). We recommend a small backpack for travel and excursions. To reassure the youngest, sliding a duvet or a letter from the family can make a difference.

The documents not to be forgotten

At the administrative level, organizations generally require a complete file before departure: connection sheet, medical certificates, photocopy of the identity card, vital paper and, sometimes, the vaccination book. If the child follows a treatment, provide the prescription and informs the supervision team of methods (dosage, taking hours, contraindications, etc.).

Also anticipate any specific allergies or diets. It is better to talk about it directly with the upstream educational team, to avoid errors during the stay.

It also prepares the child, not only his suitcase

Mental and emotional preparation is as important as logistics. A few days before departure, take time to chat with your child. Ask him questions about what he expects from the stay, listen to his concerns, reassure him without minimizing what he feels.

Involve the child in the preparation of his suitcase also allows you to enhance it. He will know what he takes and where to find it, an advantage for the youngest who thus earns autonomy.

D -Day: Zen remain to transmit trust

On the morning of departure, there is no need to extend farewells. The too emotionally loaded separations can make the transition more difficult. A simple but hot farewell, a reassuring word and a sincere smile will do much more than tears.

Remember to score your child’s clothes in his name and check the organizer’s instructions: appointment time, place of departure, documents to put on the spot. A small envelope with some stamps or a pre -ermpita postcard can also encourage children to give their news.

A well -prepared summer field is the beginning of an unforgettable adventure. For children, it is an opportunity to get autonomy, make new friends and live experiences that will grow them. For parents, this is a symbolic and precious step: that of trust.
