Hi everyone,

I have a 3-year-old and an 8-year-old, and one thing I’ve found really hard when planning trips is figuring out whether a destination will actually work for our family.

A place can look amazing online, but that doesn’t always answer the questions that matter with young kids:

• Is it stroller-friendly?
• Are there playgrounds or easy outdoor spaces nearby?
• Is public transport manageable with tired kids?
• Are restaurants relaxed about children?
• Are there enough low-stress things to do between the “big” attractions?
• Is it actually fun for both a toddler and an older kid?

I started building traveltods.world because I couldn’t find this kind of practical info in one place. The idea is kind of Nomad List, but for parents traveling with toddlers, and I’d like it to become community-based, with real input from parents who have actually been to these places.

I wanted to share it here as a resource, but mostly to get feedback.

When you’re choosing a destination with young kids, what do you wish was easier to know upfront?
