My Miracle Cure for Kids Travel Woes

Miracle CureJet lag. Bad night’s sleep. Homesickness. Sudden rainstorm. Sibling fight. Too many Temple-itis.

Every little skirmish can blow up into a catastrophe when you’re 12 times zones away from home. Fortunately, I’ve discovered the cure for every complaint the kids can throw at me on the road: ice cream.

I’ve yet to visit a place that doesn’t sell it, and a few minutes sitting down with a frozen treat does the trick with most travel maladies. It may be more the forced reset than the actual ice cream itself, but either way I’ll take it.

(And I don’t just use this trick overseas. At home sugar-free Slurpees are my go-to for tummyaches, sore throats, bumps and bruises…)

Do you use the Ice Cream cure? Any other magic remedies you suggest? Please share in the comments.

      Definitely! The Deal Kids got a lesson in US litigation seeing how much more “dangerous” (fun) the playgrounds were in Europe.
