The moving day is one of the most anticipated days when moving house with all your family to another place. A removal for a couple of weeks for the summer vacation or a big removal abroad - there is a vast array of moving days, each with its own specific procedures, checklists and more. Yet one feels quite more responsible, than in the usual days, because it`s the moving house day. It can often turn into a nightmare or into an overwhelming day to remember, or maybe the kids will play around the boxes to make the atmosphere even more exhausting. Nevertheless, with some tips and tricks, the removal day can enhance into a truly joyful atmosphere for kids and adults alike. Just keep in mind the following advices:Kids always need special attention and the removals day is not an exception. Even more, that`s the day when parents and adults should care about the kids, while supervising the removal processes in the meantime. The atmosphere can easily become even more complicated when the packaging team of several uniformed strong men enter in the house and make the first contact with the kids. A great idea is to be prepared for that at least a couple of days before via some amusing games for kids or just prepare their favorite sandwiches. A couple of extra hours without the distraction of your kids are truly important, especially when you have to comply with moving checklists, transportation boxes, numbers, arrangements, etc. In this case, a couple of sandwiches for breakfast are a perfect choice to escape from the hustle and bustle around the piles with items and boxes. Moreover, some lollipops or candies for a dessert can really enhance the atmosphere into an amusement.Make sure to get the camera with yourself and always try to capture the best snap shot. The removals day is one of the last days in the old house and the memories stay forever, especially if captured in a picture. Empty the memory card of your camera in advance and just put it in the pocket like the keys or the phone. Or else, just take photos with the phone camera in case of a truly hustling removal. Capture your old house from the backyard; then from the street; take a photo of the empty rooms and all the huge boxes. Capture all that can help you remember the atmosphere from the good old days in your old house, but make also sure to leave some free memory card on your camera for later. As soon as you end the overwhelming relocation adventure, start taking photos from a completely different viewpoint. It`s a myriad of viewpoints surrounding your new house or even from inside, where hide plenty of shadows and huge vast spaces between the empty rooms. What better way to memorialize the moving house atmosphere in an amusing and contrasting way, than with photos of the old and the new house at the same day? After that, just put the best pictures in frames, include short descriptive phrases and enjoy this day into a little bit of more emotional way.After verifying the unloaded items from the removal van by the items from the moving checklist - enjoy the new home with all your friends, family and kids, but another great idea is to meet the new neighbors. Enjoy a cup of fresh coffee with them while your kids meeting with their kids, for example, or introduce your kids in the community since the first minutes after your arrival via relaxing trip in the nearby park, along the shaded alleys or via walk to the local school maybe.
