Health and Diet
Picky kids? If you're accommodating fussy eaters, you might be tempted by their differing plates. Get around it by serving "like" foods: fat-free vanilla pudding for one child and low-fat vanilla frozen yogurt for another, for example. When it comes to healthy, delicious foods, there is something for everyone. Replace chips and cookies with the healthy versions of these snacks.

Fitness:
Stay out of harm's way when exercising on vacation. Make sure you are aware of the traffic laws, know where it is safe to bike or run, try to stick to hotel fitness centers, rent equipment from reputable establishments and remember that you may be under the jurisdiction of a foreign government.
