I’m looking for any hints on how to go on enjoyable and relaxing vacations with two small children. The kids are 4 and 10months and the four year old is very energetic. Somehow so far everything we tried wasn’t in a way that both parents enjoyed it too much. So we’re happy to learn from your experience. Bonus if it’s not too expensive.
Keep the ambitions low, lots of play/snack breaks, and try to pick places where kids can be kids.
Camping is a good option if you already have the gear. Science museums are good too because they’re family friendly while usually having stuff for the grown ups.
