Going on a trip with your entire family is probably the best thing ever. Exploring unfamiliar places and experiencing new things together makes for the most unforgettable stories. But don’t forget that while on vacation, a lot of things can happen, and it’s always best to keep everyone safe, especially the kids.

Perhaps one of the most important things parents can do to keep their kids safe is to read up on the place they’re visiting, especially if they’re not familiar with it. There may be some details that may point out specific places as more hazardous than others. Take for instance going to national parks. Not every trail is safe or family-friendly. Parents should know this kind of information.
Another key task before embarking on the exciting journey is to get everyone on the same page. Have a small family conference a day or two before leaving, with the agenda being ground rules. Kids should know what to do in case they inadvertently get separated from their parents.
During the trip itself, have kids carry phones with GPS capability so you can tag them and see where they are again, just in case they get separated from you. Theme parks and monuments can sometimes get crowded. Along with this, write a note and have the kids carry the note around them. Make out the note to a policeman or any person of authority who the kids can approach if they get lost.
