#15: How to Travel During the Holidays With Kids: Keeping Christmas Traditions Alive Anywhere

Today I’m talking all about traveling with kids during the holidays—Thanksgiving, Christmas, or both—and how to keep your family traditions alive even when you’re far from home. I’m sharing our Christmas in Puerto Rico with 12 family members (yes, Santa still found us!), how we recreated the magic with stockings, pajamas, a mini “felt” Christmas tree, cookie decorating, and games, plus what it looks like to celebrate Christmas in places like Tulsa with extended family while still protecting our own core traditions. You’ll hear practical tips for making any holiday away from home feel special, ideas for what to pack, how to plan ahead with groceries and gifts, and a simple checklist to help your family enjoy the season—whether you’re around the tree at home or opening presents after a morning at the beach.✨🧳 Family Travel Made EasyA step-by-step travel-agent-in-your-pocket planning system📌 Show Notes 🔗 Episode page: https://www.happylittletraveler.co/podcast/episode15Felt Christmas Tree (travel friendly)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~✈️ TRAVEL DEALS & SERVICES🔥 Thrifty Traveler — Flight Deal AlertsGet $20 off your first year📸 Flytographer — Vacation PhotosGet $25 off your first session🎒 Happy Little Traveler Activity Kits (Amazon)Screen-free entertainment for flights & travel days🎁 FREE TRAVEL RESOURCES📱 Must-Have Wi-Fi Free Apps + Travel Apps GuideStress-free travel days for everyone💸 Get Your Next Vacation for (Almost) FreeBeginner points & miles guide for families🧠 101 Sanity-Saving Tips for Traveling With KidsPacking, flights, hotels & routines made easier📚 SIGNATURE FAMILY TRAVEL GUIDES🖍️ Printable Kids' Travel Activities65+ screen-free pages to keep kids happy on flights & on-the-go🌎 SHOP & FOLLOW🛍️ Amazon Store Front: Our Travel FavoritesWebsite: HappyLittleTraveler.co
