Tracking Your Tyke’s Travels: The Four Year Update

Share this!:

Once of the first posts I made on this blog when it launched in the summer of 2012 was about how you should track your tyke’s travels so that your child has a record of their jetsetting childhood one day.  I traveled so much with my parents when I was young, but there is no way we can reconstruct all the trips and the airlines I flew.  Photos only tell some of the story, and if you are like me, you probably don’t take a lot of photos of the traveling process itself.  While you still can, search through those old emails and find your travel receipts for your little ones!  Here’s a downloadable Word file that you can use as a template for your own flight tracker.

My daughter just turned four last week, so I decided this was a good opportunity to update her travel tracker.  I didn’t realize it, but she’s has had a very busy past 12 months of travel, with 10 roundtrip jaunts under her belt!  This is by far the most we’ve traveled in one year and is probably a function of how much better of a traveling companion she has quickly become.  I know the coming months will be a bit quieter, so we’ll have to look for some road trip opportunities to satisfy her wanderlust.

Here are the current travel stats of Little V:
