This little potty chair has saved me on so many occasions I can’t even count. I keep it in the trunk of my car at all times because you never know when your kid is going to need to go number 2 and there may not be a potty nearby! This is at the top o...

This is something a recommend if you have kids with sensitive eyes. I have two kids with light blue eyes and they truly need sunnies way more than my two kids who have brown eyes. These glasses are a win all around though because they are super durab...

Yes—we do screen time on road trips. There is no better way to drive in my opinion! When you are cooped up in a car with little kids screaming for 6+ hours you will wish you had a screen to put in front of their face. 😂 These tablets are awesome tho...

If you want a break from screen time or if you have a little who can’t tolerate screen time for very long I would recommend these! They are easy to peal on and off and they are fun! A warning though, that you might end up with little puffy stickers i...

I love these clear bags. They are durable and they are big. I use them to store items in my car and in my home for toys and other little things that need to be contained. Get these and put in some markers and paper for your kid for your next road tri...

Get the 10ft ones. Trust me, you will need them when your kids tablet needs to be charged halfway through your drive and your basic 6ft isn’t going to cut it!

Mess free coloring is always a win in my book. You know what else I love about this product? It spans ages. So I can pull this out for my toddler or for my 6 yo who needs a screen time break for a second. Great to have on hand for those long car ride...

If you have a baby/kid in a rear facing car seat I absolutely love this mirror. It is big enough without being massive and it is easy to install. I have purchased 3 of these suckers and still have them all (one for my husbands car and two for my two ...

I love this product. My son was old enough to understand how to buckle/unbuckle himself but could never get the big buckle on his own, found this and it was a lifesaver for me! I have 4 kids all close together so having to reach into the back seat to...

These aren’t glam but necessary if you have family members who get carsick! Literally a lifesaver if you have kiddos in the back seat trying to hold it together!

This is great for roadtrips (or for anytime really) if you have kids in your car. You know there will be trash and it will make your life 100% easier to just have a designated trashcan to collect all the crap that would undoubtedly be all over the fl...

We love these headphones for our toddlers. They don’t irritate their head/ears and they are fun! My older kids can use normal headphones but when they’re little these are the way to go!
