Take Care Of Your Kids During Summer Vacation

Even if you are going to stay crete family resorts it is necessary for parents to make a "holiday schedule" that children will follow, especially in relation to their basic needs, such as food and sleep. How specific this program will be depends on the age of the children, their individual characteristics and the place where the family is for summer vacation. Remember that tired children do not behave like tired adults - they become hyperactive, irritable and try to vent their energy.

A good idea during summer - something that the winter does not lend itself to, due to obligations - is to take a nap. After the beach and play, return to crete family resorts and let the children rest even for an hour. They will immediately feel better, more rested and calmer.

For the afternoon and evening hours, avoid caffeine from soft drinks as much as you can, because they can cause insomnia and overexertion. Also, they don't need to eat big meals like lunch every night, especially if it's preceded by a good afternoon snack.

At the same time, the summer holidays are an excellent opportunity for parents to get closer to their children and discuss various topics that they might not have had time for in their daily lives.Near to most crete family resorts you will find beautiful beaches where you can collect shells, stones or pebbles that you can then use to make a collage, paint on them or decorate the house. You can also give them the camera and the role of... journalist, to make a "reportage" of images from nature. Lie with the child under a tree and just listen to the sounds or read them a book just before bed.
