5 Things you need to pack when you travel with kids

Traveling with kids can be quite exhausting at first. All that packing and bags makes all parents stress out a bit and so – forget a few essential items as well. But do not worry! You are not going to leave anything at home anymore! We, together with hotel booking professionals from Travel Ticker, made a list of five super important things you just need to pack then you travel with kids. With this list, you will have everything and be prepared for everything as well!

A pair of clothing for you and your kids
Sometimes unpredictable things happen, and it is always better to be ready for the worst. A pair of clothing can help you out if your baby is still pretty small and get nauseous on a long flight. You definitely would want to change him, and in some cases – change your clothing as well. So a pair of spare clothing in your bag just to be prepared for the worst won‘t take too much space in your carry bag and will let you relax a little bit as well.

Earplugs
You can thank me later for this tip! A few packs of earplugs for adults and children are the essential item of your bag. With these earplugs, every place will be super cozy and suitable for a good night sleep. So if your flight is booked just around that time then your children have their nap – these earplugs will block all the sounds that might distract kids from their rest time. Earplugs are just essential if you travel with kids, so invest in a few for your children, and for you as well – you will all be well-rested and ready for adventures.

Medicine
Since you can’t predict when your kids will get sick or when you will get sick, and since it might be hard to find appropriate medicine abroad, you should always pack some medicine with you as well. Get something to fight various types of pain, high temperature, nauseous and add something extra for the belly ache to be prepared for everything. You might not use that at all, but you will be confident that you are prepared for everything for sure.

Snacks
Snacks are also essential. Kids tend to get irritated and unhappy then they are hungry and can’t get food. So avoid any unpleasant situations or dramas because of hunger and always have some healthy snacks in your travelling bag. Little carrots, apples or nuts are full of flavor and will keep your kids full for a while. I wouldn’t recommend giving food with sugar on it because kids might get too active on a plane or train and that might ruin the whole trip for you, and for fellow passengers.

Baby wipes
Finally, always have a pack of baby wipes in your bag as well. These wipes are useful for washing hands, cleaning toilet seats, and wiping down restaurant tables. Another alternative product can also be a few little bottles or hand cleansers or sanitizers that will keep kids’ hands clean all the time. But remember that there is a limit of liquids in your bags. So maybe invest more in wet wipes instead if you bring other liquids with you.
