A new challenge for your rental: welcoming children. How can you ensure that both parents and children have the best possible experience? Here’s our advice!
1. In your home
We don’t always think about it, but can you imagine yourself in the shoes of a 4-year-old when it’s raining outside and you’ve got nothing to do? When we’re grown-ups, we always find something to do, but for them it’s more complicated. So if you want everyone to enjoy themselves, and parents to relax a little, take the lead! You can offer a little chest filled with treasures for the kids! Parents will be delighted, not to mention the children. There’s no need to break the bank to fill it, here’s what we suggest:
- Books for all ages, from Boulinier or Recyclivre
- A few board games: from flea markets, Vinted, Leboncoin, your children’s games they no longer use…
- Easy recipes to cook with your parents: you can print out recipe cards from Marmiton or Aufeminin.
- DVDs or restricted Netflix or Amazon access (which parents can monitor)
And don’t forget the garden. If the parents don’t want to go out, what can the child do in your garden? Don’t hesitate to specify whether you have farm animals, a vegetable garden, a swing – anything that might interest the parents!
2. Around you
Having what you need in your rental is really important. But now it’s time to thinkoutside. What’s interesting for them around you? You can leave a little notebook, or even better, your welcome booklet. StyQR with all the information you think is important.
For example:
- Child-friendly walks
- Playgrounds
- Gardens, zoos…
- Restaurants offering activities for children
This list will make life easier for parents, and will be an added bonus for you when it comes to grading!
If you apply all these little tips, everyone’s vacation will go as smoothly as possible! And your bill will stay on top, because you’ve thought of everything for the parents!
