Traveling with kids can get overwhelming, especially during the seasonal holidays. Even if you think you’ve mastered the art of packing light, traveling with just one child will make you rethink every little thing that goes into your luggage. Thankfully there are innovative brands making the process a bit easier with new baby gear, travel bags, tech gadgets and more.
While it will take some trial and error before you get it right, the key is to consolidate and compartmentalize—and somehow keep it simple. Here is a guide to travel essentials and baby gear for when you hit the road, or take flight.
Baby Bags
The right travel bag system will keep you organized from the start. Consolidate all the items you definitely will not need during the journey into a single suitcase. (Remember, you’ll be pushing a stroller through the airport so the less the better.) If it’s a long trip, think big with a single Checked suitcase from Away and use their Packing Cubes to keep the family’s clothing organized, including those little onesies, mittens and socks.
More important than the large suitcase are the bags you will need access to during the flight or road trip. For short getaways or a cute carry on, the BÉIS Weekender Bag is perfect for moms who want style and substance. The laptop-friendly large tote also has a separate bottom section for shoes, toiletries and more. Again, think of consolidation and compartmentalization.
For diaper bags, Los Angeles-based Luli Bebé uses premium quilted vegan leather that is 100% stain resistant, resulting in a classic and clean look. Its Monaco Diaper Bag (which looks lovely in latte) can be worn as a backpack or over-the-shoulder, with nine pockets and a large main compartment. In addition to stashing a reasonable supply of quality diapers and wipes (new favorites include Coterie and Ecoriginals), you want to pack at least two complete outfit changes for each child in your diaper bag.
