分享带0-5岁小孩旅行时应准备的物品和建议，涵盖食品、娱乐设备等，适合练习实用英语和旅行相关词汇。
Every other month since my two little ones were born, we've tackled six -hour road trips and squeezed in a few flights for good measure,
自从我的两个孩子出生后，每隔一个月我们就会进行一次长达六小时的公路旅行；为了增加旅行的多样性，我们还会偶尔乘坐几次飞机。
but it wasn't always smooth.
但事情的发展并不总是一帆风顺的。
Before I learned the power of packing right, it was screaming and squirming and me questioning
在我学会如何正确地打包行李之前，行李总是不停地“尖叫”（发出奇怪的声音）、不停地扭动，而我也一直在疑惑：到底该怎么办才好呢？
why I even decided to do this in the first place.
我当初究竟为什么要决定做这件事呢？
So in this video, I'm gonna walk you through exactly what to pack and what to skip for what we all want,
在这段视频中，我会详细告诉你们应该准备哪些物品，哪些可以省略。毕竟，这些都是我们大家都想要的。
stress -free travel with little ones.
与年幼的孩子一起享受无压力的旅行时光。
So we're gonna tackle food first because a hungry kid is an angry kid.
那么我们首先来解决食物问题吧——因为饥饿的孩子往往会变得易怒。
Now the key is you want to pack a big variety of a lot of different snacky foods.
现在关键在于：你需要准备各种各样的零食，种类要尽可能多。
You want eating to take as long as possible.
你希望进食的过程尽可能地漫长（即花费尽可能多的时间）。
That's why snacky foods are great because it just takes forever to eat and they can kind of graze at it.
这就是为什么零食很棒的原因：吃零食需要很长时间，人们可以边吃边慢慢享受。
So you can keep offering the lunchbox up like multiple times throughout the trip.
因此，在整个旅行过程中，你可以多次主动提供这个午餐盒。
When I say snacky foods, I don't mean candies or like treats.
当我提到“零食”时，我指的并不是糖果或类似的小吃。
I do mean like a healthy variety
我的意思是，应该包含多种健康、营养丰富的食物。
of nutritious food that I get snack on with maybe a few treats sprinkled in there because if you just give them a candy box then,
我会给他们提供一些营养丰富的食物作为零食；偶尔也会加一些小零食（比如糖果）。因为如果你只是给他们一盒糖果的话，他们的饮食就会变得非常单一（缺乏营养）。
don't do that.
别那么做。
Now most of your prep and packing time is gonna go to planning out your entertainment and activity options.
现在，你大部分的准备工作以及打包时间都应该用来规划娱乐活动和可选的消遣方式了。
Things to just keep your kid entertained.
这些方法可以用来让孩子保持娱乐状态（即让他们开心、不感到无聊）。
Now the first thing you're always gonna want to have with you is a pair of headphones.
首先，你总是需要随身携带的一件物品就是一副耳机。
Now these are kid -friendly headphones meaning that they have volume limited settings.
这些耳机非常适合儿童使用，因为它们配备了音量限制功能。
So it only goes above I think like 85 decibels.
因此，我认为它的音量最高只能达到 85 分贝左右。
So it's better for their little ears.
这样对它们小小的耳朵来说更好。
They can't just like jack up the volume and you don't have to worry about their precious little ears and being too loud.
他们不能随便把音量调得很大；这样你就不用担心他们的耳朵会受到损伤，或者声音太大而对他们造成伤害了。
One I will put on like Spotify playlist on my phone and he can listen to his music.
我会把这个音乐列表设置成手机上的 Spotify 播放列表，这样他就可以随时听自己喜欢的音乐了。
Another option is if you're on a flight you can watch a show on their built -in entertainment options.
另一个选择是：如果你正在乘坐飞机，可以利用飞机上内置的娱乐设施观看节目。
This is a fun little device called the Yoda player.
这是一个非常有趣的小设备，名叫“Yoda Player”。
Kid activated stories and songs and music and activities.
孩子们通过各种方式（如故事、歌曲、音乐以及各种活动）来获取乐趣和知识。
You can get all these little cards and your child or you just puts a card in to the player and it'll start playing.
你可以获取这些小卡片；你可以让孩子自己选择卡片放入相应的“玩家”装置中，然后装置就会开始自动播放内容。
And then you can play it out loud because it has a speaker
然后你可以把它大声播放出来，因为它配备了扬声器。
or you can plug in your headphones because there's a headphone jack and then they can listen to it.
或者你可以插入耳机（因为设备上有耳机插孔），这样他们就可以听音乐了。
A toddler would be a little young for it but for a preschooler,

我们的小宝宝非常喜欢这个设备，因为他可以自己控制音乐的播放。
Like he can control the volume.
好像他能够控制音量一样。

他只是觉得自己非常强大而已。
So my next category is travel -friendly toys.
我的下一个分类是适合旅行的玩具。
Now for these I'm thinking more like fidget toys, things that don't have multiple parts that are kind of like self -contained.
对于这些产品，我更倾向于将它们视为“解压玩具”（即能够帮助人们缓解紧张情绪的玩具）——这类玩具通常没有复杂的结构，各个部件都是独立存在的、自成一体式的。
Like this is a little fidget cue which is great for I would say babies and younger toddlers.
这其实是一个提示孩子不要坐得太安静、可以稍微动动的信号；对于婴儿和年龄较小的幼儿来说，这个提示非常有用。
You just kind of like press buttons and fidget.
你只是喜欢按按钮，然后坐立不安、无所事事罢了。
