What moving tips do I need to know?
Moving does not always mean a traumatic experience. Comprehensive pre-planning, organization, and family meetings to establish each person's responsibilities will go a long way in maintaining harmony and efficiency.
For the children:
If you are moving out-of-town, provide the children with photographs of their new home and school. Once they know what to expect and begin to visualize themselves in their new surroundings, they grow much happier and more cooperative.
Give each child his or her own "packing labels" for marking personal possessions.
Provide them with floor plans of their new bedrooms so they can participate in furniture placement.
Give children small address books for noting names and addresses of friends they leave behind. They can look forward to filling the remainder of the book with names of the new friends they make after moving.
