Every mother has her own mechanism to deal with the nitty-gritty of parenting. Since every child is not the same so there is never a one-size-fits-all solution to our parenting problems. Mothers have to devise their own methods or guidelines to take care of her child s needs and deal with the little one s discomfort. And everyone has at least one or two stressors for which they have to take guard and be well planned to tackle the situation.

For a while, I gave it a thought and read up articles on the internet to deal with my child s travel sickness. Here are tips to have a smooth travel with your toddler.
Then here is how I devised a plan to counter it:
