Travel with your NOOK as well as with your little one?

Now you can keep hundreds of tips at your fingertips with the digital edition for your device. Boredom busters, sanity-savers, safety checklists, and then some. Here’s a blurb from ForeWord Magazine, which selected the book for a featured review in the annual travel edition:

Praise for Take-Along Travels with Baby 
“Parents traveling with young children universally dread certain sounds: their baby screaming on an airplane, the chorus of “Are we there yet?” from preschoolers and the “uh oh…” from a potty training toddler that indicates an accident. Shelly Rivoli knows this from experience, and has created a companion volume to her award-winning Travels with Baby trip planning guide. In Take-Along Travels with Baby: Hundreds of Tips to Help During Travel with Your Baby, Toddler, and Preschooler (Travels with Baby Books, 978-0-9831227-0-8), Rivoli takes parents from the planning stage to the car, airplane, and hotel room. The expected suggestions for entertaining children are here, but there are also tips for getting through long lines quickly, installing rental car seats, hiring local babysitters, and more. Many parents will find this guide indispensable on their trips, and may even benefit from keeping it in the diaper bag to have handy next time they find themselves in backed up traffic or waiting to pick up the older kids from school.”

If you use a Blackberry, iPad, iPhone, PC, Android device or Kindle when you travel, your next trip with your little one just got a whole lot easier.

Take-Along Travels with Baby – the new companion to the ultimate planning guide – has just become available in a Kindle edition with apps for your favorite devices.

Be road-trip ready!
Picture this: You are on a winding road with your baby who suddenly begins to cry, and you’ve got 4 hours of driving ahead to reach your destination. You pull up the TOC for Take-Along Travels with Baby and jump to your “Tips for a Happier Backseat Baby” and see a list of ideas that may help you make it there without ear plugs or killing each other.

While you’re at it, you jump to the lyrics of “Easy Songs to Sing in the Car” to help pass the time until you can pull over for a pit stop.

What, it’s raining and cold outside? You know I wouldn’t send you out on a family road trip without a list of “Best Bet Rainy Day Road Stops.”

Cranky toddler on an airplane? Fussy baby in a restaurant? Sick kid in a faraway country? Yep, this one’s got you covered there, too. (See the whole TOC here.)

Your best deal on the book?
And for those of you who prefer to have the pocket-size paper edition (with room for your child’s travel doodles!), don’t miss the special publisher’s discounted price available through Amazon with free SuperSaver shipping, when you buy from Travels with Baby Books.

Safe journeys,
