[quote=Anonymous]We have moved our son five times in his life. You have gotten some great practical tips on the mechanics of moving. Here are a couple of ideas that have made our son look forward to and love moving:

- A new toy or new privilege that comes with the new house. Pick out a toy for each child and/or something small for their new room/s from Amazon and get it  delivered the first day. When we moved from California to Tennesee he got a Robbie the Robot, his first remote control toy. The empty rooms were perfect for palting with a robot that danced and shot foam discs out of its mouth. Or a new privilege....

- When you get a spare couple of hours (I know, wishful thinking) make a photo book that chronicles their last home. This really helps especially when a child may be anxious about changing homes. It also underscores for children that each chapter of life holds great things and that the new home will be a source of good memories as well.

And really, kids and boxes? They are in heaven. Some Crayola markers and masking tape and stickers and they can pack and decorate their own boxes. And the forts and cardboard rocket ships possibilities at the other end are also lots of fun.

Good luck with your move![/quote]
