5 Tips for Selecting Travel Games for Kids

By Thomas Salatto


Traveling is fun and exciting, but it can also be hectic and chaotic. However, if you add a lanyard on your list of things to bring, you will discover that your trip has a lot fewer things to worry about. Below is a list of seven ways that you can make great use of a lanyard while you are sightseeing on your vacation.

Cell Phone As we all know, nobody wants to leave their phone behind. However, when you are traveling you might find that your normal means of carrying your phone is not convenient. This may be because you are not wearing clothing that has pockets, or because you are not carrying your purse with you everywhere that you go. An alternative is to buy yourself a handy lanyard, which has a cell phone loop.

Travelers are receiving everything from loyalty points to discounts and rebates for remaining loyal to a particular online travel company. This procedure has worked very well for the cruise line industry which showers loyal customers with unbelievable discounts on select cruises.

Medication When you leave your hotel room, you should never leave your valuables inside. You should leave them in the hotel safe. This precaution should extend to any prescription medications that you are taking. Get a pouch or lanyard wallet and only keep the medication that you need for the day with you while you are out exploring.

Usually when we cruise, we depart from San Francisco. The line to board ship extends out pass the terminal onto the sidewalk and this is when you arrive early. Becoming a member of the elite group and getting to pass up everyone in the line and go straight to the front of the line, is a benefit which was too good for me to pass up. It took me several years, but we finally reached the number of cruises which allow us to pass up everyone in the line. I can't explain what a great benefit it is to walk pass everyone, a thousand plus people, all standing in a very long line, watching and wondering, "Where are they going?"

Think creativity. Go beyond coloring books and look for fun, easy crafts like color your own masks and activity books that encourage budding artists to be creative and have fun. When looking for crafts, make sure they are self contained and, if flying, contain no glue or scissors.

Documents When you leave the hotel for a day's outing, you should as a rule leave all of your documents in the hotel safe and not in your room. However, you are probably going to want to have some kind of identification with you while you are out. If you are not intending to bring a purse or a wallet, you can solve this dilemma by keeping your important documents on a lanyard.
