Hi,
I will be travelling with my nearly 4 year old nephew to Bali with my sister, mum and dad. It is the first time I have been with a child. My biggest concern for him is Bali Belly - mainly drinking the water. He loves bath/shower time and this involves drinking and spitting out the water - how do I stop him from doing this in Bali, I won't understand 'why he can't do that', also the same problem with pool water.

Also, I know Travelan is popular - I have never had it and never travelled with someone who has taken it either - is this child friendly, are their other child medication recommendations?

And sorry lastly, who do we go with shopping anf him touching and grabbing things - and problems with the Balinese, like him getting into trouble or anything? I can put him in a stroller, but who won't stay in this the whole time.

Sorry for the questions and long note, but any help and tips will be appreciated. Thanks from a nervous, concerned Aunty! Penni
