At The Time Of Packing

- Identical documents
- Affiliation to the health system and complementary medical insurance. Store everything in the document holder and save a PDF copy to your email
- Comfortable shoes for each member of the family. This guarantees greater comfort during outings and prevents the little ones from falling around the house.

- Accompany your children in the pool and the sea.
And The Routines On Vacation?
During the holidays, family dynamics change and routines are no exception. Make sure that meals are a pleasant time for family gatherings, avoid the excessive use of screens and encourage spaces that allow the interaction of all family members, creating spaces that transmit joy and well-being.
While it is true that schedules change during the holidays, this prevents children from skipping meals during the day. Please take advantage of the school holidays so that your children learn new skills that will keep them entertained and improve their physical condition. For example, learn to skate, ride a bike, ride a skateboard, dance and much more. Not only does this keep them more active, but it can also reduce their screen time.
