We have great ideas about how the family vacation will go--everyone will be happy, the teens will talk to you, the toddlers won't have tantrums and the hotel will give you a free upgrade to a suite and the front desk people will smile the entire time. Even when your kid breaks that really big vase on the table.

Family travel is the hot new travel trend and increasingly destinations know how to cater to kids and parents. So this week we're going to push it to the max and indulge our fantasies of the perfect family vacation. Join us to share yours on our Feb. 6 #TMOM Monday Twitter party when we talk about family vacations.

In addition, be sure to enter our contest for a family vacation for four to Aruba, including airfare. To get a taste of the island, watch this video of TravelingMom Kim Orlando and her efforts to get her kids to tune out their electronics and tune into the wonders of the Caribbean island of Aruba.
