How to Help Your Kids After Moving?

Without any doubt, the best thing about moving is that you have the freedom to hire moving companies and they’re more than willing to take care of each and every aspect of moving on your behalf (which includes even getting that dresser down five flights of stairs without you raising a finger!). Now, isn’t it amazing?!

There is no denying the fact that, despite all this helpfulness of the movers, you will still have that lingering feeling of uncertainty, hopelessness, and despair due to the side-effects of moving. And, in midst of all this chaos, it’s quite easy to forget about the effects of moving on your kids and how they would be feeling about it.

Now, being the responsible adult, it’s your responsibility to make them feel at home and at ease:

  • Try to get back to the normal routine and arrange your kids’ rooms as soon as possible as it will help your kids to settle and feel more secure at the new place.
  • Pay a visit to your kids’ new school and meet their teacher personally. Make sure that your kids have started to settle in the new environment and ask the teachers to contact you in case they have any concern related to your kids.
We hope these suggestions will help your kids to adjust in a better way.

3 Most Essential Things You Are Going To Need on Your Moving Day

It doesn’t matter, how much planning and efforts you have put into- to make your moving day smooth, but things still get crazier on the final day. Even though, movers will ease the tension and will make the whole process much smoother for you, there would be still a probability of things getting out of control. So, the next best thing to do is to be prepared and the below enlisted pointers will definitely help you to achieve this goal:

Packing tape is good, but getting a good tape dispenser is better. You would definitely not want to accidentally tape your fingers together or get the tape stuck to itself while packing your final boxes.


You are moving but your long stay in the old house has resulted in lots of holes into the drywalls. Obviously, your landlord won’t be happy to see them! So, go ahead and use your toothpaste generously, to cover those holes and paint the wall afterwards. The result would be at least better than gaping holes in the walls.

Permanent markers are the most significant tool on your moving day. You never know how many things you would start getting in those closed drawers which you thought were empty. Hence, grab a carton and your marker and seal the deal with all the ingredients of the box with the help of your marker pen. This way, you won’t have to keep looking for those small things (once you arrive at the new home) that you had packed at the last minute.

How to Take Care of Your Kids while Moving?

Moving is painful and the pain becomes ten times worse if you’ve toddlers in your family to keep an eye on. Although, moving companies make the job easier for you by taking care of packing, loading, unpacking and other chores involved in the process, but they can certainly not take care of your toddlers. Hence, it’s your job to keep an eye on these little bundles of energy if you want your moving experience to be completed without any bigger hitch.


Although, there aren’t any set rules on how to childproof your move, but a little bit of patience and common sense can take you a long way and keep your kids out of the danger. Start with noting down and keeping a track of dangerous items that should be kept far away from the reach of your children.

Second comes, the box of tools that you’ve made to help you while unpacking (the box consisting of box cutters, knives, scissors, etc.) You will want to put this box in a hard-to-reach place as soon as possible to avoid any unfortunate incidents.

Medications and your cleaning supplies are the next things to take care of. Make sure that any potentially toxic liquids or cleaners are out of reach for your kids. Furthermore, you can also consider using milder or natural cleaning agents rather than harsh chemicals.
