Last year my family and I embarked on our very first ever Disney Cruise Line vacation on the Disney Dream when we were magically invited to attend the Disney Creators Celebration.

As a licensed child therapist with over a decade of experience, I work with a lot of children that engage in temper tantrums. Although it can be argued that this is a developmental milestone and is typical for most children, there are still ways parents and caregivers can help minimize the severity of the temper tantrum.

Either way, traveling is a form of self care… Read More

They share a special bond and yet one minute they are snuggling, playing, and getting along, and the next minute they are arguing and not speaking to each other.
