Here’s my proven (and flight attendant approved!) carry on formula to keep everyone happy when we travel 🧳 ✈️ The bag: @landsend totes are incredible! My good friend gave them to both of my kids for their first birthdays. It is such an amazing gift! I love something practical and thoughtful. They hold so much stuff and hold up so well. Most important tip: use zipper pouches! I use the largest size to keep all my items categorized. There is nothing worse than fumbling around in your bag for headphones or wipes when you need them. Toiletry bag: wet wipes, hand sanitizer, sanitizing wipes, tissues, motion sickness acupressure wristbands, Benadryl for stuffy noses (helps my kids with ear pressure!) Snacks: more is more when it comes to this bag! A little snack can go a looong way keeping a fussy toddler busy. Make sure to stick some ring pops in there for take off and landing! Kids’ activity bags: this is kid specific! Right now my daughter’s was full of coloring supplies and games and my son’s was full of trucks and cars. Check out the @dollartree to keep this affordable! When I had babies I had window clings, post it notes, suction cup spinners and teething toys. Electronics: my kids both have kid kindles and a set of headphones. I also bring my own AirPods (I listen to downloaded audiobooks or podcasts on the plane. We are so close to me being able to watch my own movie, but not quite yet), a portable phone charger and the kids’ kindle charger. Travel delays happen, and you do not want to get caught with a dead battery on the tail end of an unexpectedly long day! Extra clothes bag: make sure you have a pair of undies (or diapers/pull ups), and a second outfit (I usually do a pair of pajamas) for each kid. When my kids were little I also brought an extra shirt for myself! Inevitably someone spilled something (or worse 🤪) on me and I was happy to have it. Did I miss anything?
