But while not necessarily easy or simple, if travel is a priority for your family, it is possible with the right planning and preparation.In today’s episode, we share the best tips and tricks from The Rare Life community. We cover everything from general planning to airplane specific tips (there are a ton!) to finding the best accommodations and more. We even have a few tips for camping with medically complex kiddos!Plus, we also dive into the big feelings that can come up for us around traveling with our kids and why it’s okay if that’s not a priority for your family right now.
