11 Packing Tips for Baby Travel

Tag a family with upcoming travel plans! Anyone else have a stash of toys and activities just for travel? Ours is mostly from the Dollar Tree. I can walk in with $10 or less and get crayons, coloring books, stickers, reading books, toy cars, action figures, and animal figurines.

He slept on the layover, on the flight, in the car, and at our vacation rental too. The next day, our first epic day of vacation… he slept until 1 PM. Was the itinerary ruined? No, not even close. I came prepared to travel his pace, knowing our sleep would be a little wacky.

Unpopular opinion: book the early morning flight, especially if traveling with kids. I know this sounds insane, but it’s been our greatest travel hack. Here’s why we prefer to book early morning flights:

No more wasted space in our luggage, and no more risk of damage to precious investments like sound machines and baby monitors because… there’s an app for that! Okay, there’s actually three apps, but you get the idea. Here’s what we use:

So you want a tropical vacation without the price tag? I think Naples, Florida can do just that! Here’s some quick destination info:

Fun ways to save the day on your next flight when it’s time to pull the Hail Mary move: put stuff you already own inside Easter eggs. You’re welcome 🤪 Save this post for your next vacation! Here’s a few ideas to get you started:
