Documents and legalities...

Here's some information from Foreign Affairs Canada on Travel with Kids. Passports, notarized letters, child abduction information as well.

This site is great for Canadians traveling with kids, and has pretty much all of the information and links to what you need to know.

PS: Please feel free to drop in information about YOUR country in relation to travel with kids. It would be great to have a central source for people to refer to.

I found this site that seems to be the equivalent for USA.

I know that when traveling with my daughter and also with my nephew we had to have notarized letters and have even had to swear affidavits to bring them out of the country to places including Mexico, Bahamas, USA, Cuba.

I also found that out - if only one of the parents is traveling (not both), they take precautions against child abductions, so you need to check whether you need any special papers. If both parents are traveling, I don't think it's a problem.
