✈️Packing Tips for Traveling with Young Children
👕 Pack complete outfits together. Put a shirt, bottoms, underwear and socks together in a packing cube or zip-top bag. It makes getting everyone dressed much easier.
🧳 Pack at least one extra outfit in your carry-on for each child and consider an extra shirt for Mom or Dad, too! Spills and accidents don't always happen to just the kids.
🩱 Keep swimsuits in your carry-on. If your room isn't ready when you arrive at a resort, the kids can still head to the pool.
🧸 Bring one familiar comfort item. A favorite small blanket or stuffed animal can make sleeping in a new place much easier.
🍿 Pack more snacks than you think you'll need. Choose easy, mess-free favorites and save a few special snacks for when you really need a distraction.
🎧 Download entertainment before leaving home. Movies, shows, games and books can be lifesavers when Wi-Fi isn't available. Don't forget child-sized headphones.
💊 Create a small parent emergency kit. Bandages, children's pain reliever, any regular medications, wipes, hand sanitizer and other essentials are much easier to have with you than hunt down on vacation.
🧺 Bring a bag for dirty clothes. A lightweight laundry bag keeps worn clothing separate and makes unpacking much easier.
🍼 Think about what you'll need during the journey, not just at the destination. Diapers, wipes, bottles, formula, snacks and a change of clothes should be easily accessible rather than buried in checked luggage.
🏷️ Label the important stuff. Put your phone number on backpacks, water bottles, tablets and other items that are likely to get left behind.
🧳 Don't overpack. Check what your resort or hotel already provides. Cribs, pack-and-plays, hair dryers and other bulky items may already be available.
One of my favorite tips: Give each child a small backpack with a few things they choose themselves, a toy, coloring supplies, book, headphones and a snack. It gives them something that's theirs for the trip and keeps their entertainment out of your carry-on!
