At DelSuites, we try our best to make your home away from home, especially for families. Here are a few tips to ease the transition when relocating with family to your furnished suite in Toronto.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>1. Tell Your Kids!<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nFor younger children, it is best to tell them when it\u2019s necessary (certainly not a week or the night before you are moving) so they can understand and cope with the process (even if they may not understand it). Teenagers feel like adults in the family and it\u2019s important to tell them as soon as plans are in place so they can also cope and maximize their time with friends in their old neighbourhood. Having a family meeting may help so kids can express their feelings about the situation.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>2. Focus on the Positive Aspects of Moving.<\/strong><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.torontozoo.com\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright  wp-image-4766\" src=\"https:\/\/www.delsuites.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/bigstock-Family-With-Boxes-In-New-Home-4717873.jpg\" alt=\"relocating with family\" width=\"252\" height=\"378\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.delsuites.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/bigstock-Family-With-Boxes-In-New-Home-4717873.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.delsuites.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/bigstock-Family-With-Boxes-In-New-Home-4717873-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 252px) 100vw, 252px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nMost kids may only focus on the negative aspects of moving (they will be removed from their friends and familiar surroundings, for instance). By focusing on positive aspects like a new neighbourhood that may be close to some of Toronto\u2019s top attractions for kids (like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ripleyaquariums.com\/canada\/\">Ripley&#8217;s Aquarium<\/a> or the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.torontozoo.com\/\">Toronto Zoo<\/a>) or that they will make new friends or that they will have a bigger room, they may start to understand the process of change. One way to look at the process is as an adventure.<\/p>\n<p>That said, feeling at \u201chome\u201d in their new home may just take time and they\u2019ll get used to their new surroundings. DelSuites helps with this process by offering a Kid Care gift to every child under 14 when they arrive. Find out more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.delsuites.com\/travelling-with-kids.php\">here<\/a>. Many of the DelSuites properties have a pool, which would be an exciting aspect of a new home for a child that swims or wants to learn.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>3. Schedule a Doctor\u2019s Appointment for Your Children Prior to Moving.<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nHaving this in place will ensure your child is healthy and safe to fly abroad (if this is the situation). If you are moving via driving, it\u2019s good to know hospitals along the way in case something happens. Having a doctor, pediatrician, or clinic set up in your new neighbourhood and your family\u2019s medical records easily accessible, will ensure that your family\u2019s needs are taken care of in case something happens.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft  wp-image-4767\" src=\"https:\/\/www.delsuites.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/bigstock-Family-with-moving-boxes-in-ne-96516473.jpg\" alt=\"relocating with family\" width=\"257\" height=\"386\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.delsuites.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/bigstock-Family-with-moving-boxes-in-ne-96516473.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.delsuites.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/bigstock-Family-with-moving-boxes-in-ne-96516473-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 257px) 100vw, 257px\" \/>4. Get Your Kids Involved in the Process.<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nHaving your kids involved will make the process seem less scary. A few tips: host a going-away party with your kids and their friends from their old neighbourhood\/school and take photos (remind them that saying goodbye doesn\u2019t mean that they won\u2019t see their friends again). While moving, let your kids pick some of their favourite items that they will want to travel with them (especially if you are flying to Toronto, in case certain items get lost or delayed in the process). After moving, an \u201copen me first\u201d box for your kids will help them with the excitement of moving somewhere new. For older kids, helping them unpack their boxes together, or putting together their room will help them become more comfortable with the new space. If you are going to be staying in a furnished rental in Toronto, one of the advantages is that everything is set up for you, including a stocked kitchen, laundry facilities (including laundry soap!), housekeeping, and even <a href=\"https:\/\/www.delsuites.com\/concierge\/grocery_service.php\">pre-arrival grocery services<\/a> are available.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>5.
