Travelling with Toddlers
Gear, activities and tips that we swear by when travelling with our two kids under 5.
Travel Stroller
All the things to help you stroll little one from A to B a little easier
A light, easy to fold and carry travel stroller. The Minu is easily collapsible and has a shoulder strap for comfortable carrying. It folds down small enough to fit in most overhead compartments and you won't be that parent struggling at he gate to f...
Snack tray for the Menu is a must
Feeding & General Comfort
These tumblers are the only water bottles we have not had to replace. They have been thrown, smashed, dropped, forgotten and have not cracked. The only water bottle my 3yo will use. They come with an extra straw too.
We always throw a pack of the sun shade (or sun clings) in our bag if we will be renting or travelling in a car that is not ours on our trip.
There are many different versions of this but this is the one we use. It is a blackout curtain that suction cups to the window for when your accommodations are a little brighter than your little one is used to for sleep/nap time.
We like our Bentgo box for school, picnics and long trips. They come in different sizes/styles as well and our sons like having their own snack boxes.
Toys
We love these (mostly) mess-free activity books. Easy to fill and empty the pen with water, no ink or crayon to worry about.
Our son loves his “oculators”. We pack them in his backpack when we go on adventures. He also loves when we plan scavenger hunts for him to find things to bring back on our walks.
My 4 year old has really taken to puzzles and is working on his writing in preparation for Kindergarten next year. Activity books are all over our house right now, but these self-contained activity kits are wipe clean making them great for the car, p...
Tech
We love this waterproof speaker. It has 10h of battery life so it doubles as a sound machine for the littest traveller.
So much more convenient than always having to pull out your phone or camera. Mount the GoPro to your stroller/wagon, bag, bike etc. and catch those candid family videos.
Air Travel
Ride-on bed box by Stokke. My 3.5 year old adores his suitcase. Loves to pull it, be pulled on it, and turn any seat into a lay flat pod.
Window spinners for the plane are a great time killer for the littlest littles.
Wagon & Accessories
If your adventure is taking you to the snow, sand or mud, we recommend the Veer wagon. It has so many accessories to help customize your kids perfect all terrain vehicle.
Sun Canopy
Storage basket - this is the best for beach toys etc.
