Holiday Travel and Visiting Family Social Narrative for Kids | 29-Page Printable Big Moment Story Ages 4–8 | Car Trip Relatives Activities

A calm story for holiday trips and family visits: pack things from home, buckle up, say hello your own way, learn the house rules, and say goodbye.

Nora and Eli get ready to visit family for the holidays. Over 29 pages they pack things that feel like home, hear the plan, buckle up, look out the window, stretch at a rest stop, say hello with a wave or a high five, learn the rules of a new house, go to bed in a new place, rest after a busy day and say goodbye. Every step comes from a named source.
