HAVE a lovely time contributor Catherine Cooper has a brilliant book out now, all about family holidays.
There are chapters on budget breaks, what to do when things go wrong, finding the right holiday for you, plus house swaps, essential information and plenty more. Contributions in this meticulously researched book come from all sorts of families about their experiences.
Catherine introduces the book saying: "Having a baby changes your life, no-one will argue with that. But being a parent and taking holidays with your children doesn't mean you can't have the holiday you want – whatever that might be."
Questions highlighted in the book include:
- How can I find affordable family holidays?
- What can I expect from a kids' club?
- Can I go backpacking with my children?
Travelling with Children: A Parent's Guide aims to help families through the process of finding the best holiday for them and make the most of it, from start to finish. It's described as a "must have" for anyone wanting to make the most of their family holidays.
Congratulations to Catherine on the publication of such a useful book, packed with relevant, accessible and bang up to date information.
It's an excellent book with a cover price of £9.99, published by Need to Know.
It's available from all good book shops and through Amazon here:
