Sharing the details of our recent trip to Cancun Mexico with two littles! Sharing a Seadust Cancun Family Resort review!
After traveling to Maui in the fall and having an absolute blast, I realized that yes, we can travel with little kids! Is it hard? Yes. Especially the flight. Is it worth it? YES! So much yes. Even if I feel like I need a vacation after the vacation 😉
Disclaimer- I paid for this vacation out of my pocket, however some links in this post are affiliate links, meaning I’d get a small commission if you purchased through them. As always, all opinions are my own!
I knew we needed to get out of town for Spring Break this year, and after a brutally cold winter, Mexico started to look pretty darn good!
After browsing the Trip Advisor website, I saw the Seadust Cancun Family Resort and knew it would be perfect for my busy little boys because waterslides. pool. beach. games room. baby room. kids club.
If I’ve learned one thing from traveling with two little boys, it’s that there is no such thing as too many activities for them. And it turns out we picked really well because everyone had an absolute blast!
TIPS FOR FLYING WITH 1.5 YEAR OLDS
These flights were hard with a 1.5 year old. I’m not going to lie. He is BUSY, he is still not entertained by a tablet, and this time around, he didn’t easily sleep, which meant a lot of work for us.
- bring toys, snacks, a tablet with their favorite song (baby shark, anyone?). Basically anything that might distract them.
- be prepared to walk up and down the aisle with them a few times. Walking toddlers hate being confined and letting them out to roam
- be prepared to weather some crying (especially if the flight overlaps with nap or bed time). It’s harder for 1.5 year olds to get comfy on the plane
- remember the big picture: beaches, sunsets, family memories. It’s going to be worth it!
Kai (our 5 year old) was such a good traveler this time! He has come leaps and bounds since we first started traveling with him. He is happy to watch the tablet and to lay down when he feels tired. I know Zeph will get there with time and practice.
