Welcome!

Welcome! I'm Leslie Harvey, a mom of two (ages 16 and 12) based in the San Francisco Bay Area who loves to travel. Trips With Tykes is a family travel blog devoted to simplifying the logistics of traveling with kids of all ages. With a little knowledge of airline rules & good planning, family travel can be really rewarding, even if it still involves the occasional battle with TSA over your toddler's juice box.
