Autism Travel Tips

If a particular food cart or restaurant has long lines, you can always ask for their off hours and visit then.
If you or your children have any food allergies, make sure you ask the vendors if they are safe.
When traveling with children, it is always wise to bring along wet-wipes and napkins, and even possibly a change of clothes. Not to mention, kids can be messy dripping food down the front of them, and all over their hands.
