Alright, caretakers! You have made it to the motherland of deals. Chances are, if you found us, you are looking for some solid deals! We have that just for you! If you are looking for the parent blog post, click HERE! This one is KIDDOS ONLY!
That is to say, there is undoubtedly some overlap! As we have a little one who is less than a year old, this will be geared towards that age range. We like to think that she is ✨advanced✨. That said, she is right on time, and we will share all the trinkets, toys, and things that we could not live without during a travel day! Let’s jump right in!
Keeping an eye on Turtle is paramount when we are traveling to new locations. This Owlet Dreamsock allows us to do just that from the distance of our bed. Giving us peace of mind at home and abroad to make sure that she remains the safe, happy, healthy babe we know her to be.
Our go to headphones for all things loud for out little ones. Luckily, planes, for the most part, have advanced wherein we do not need this intense protection for the littles like we used to , but sometimes we find ourselves on a circa WWII oil tanker flying back from New York, which is needed. Also great to have just in case you find yourself in a generally louder place- like when we stumbled upon a cornhole competition in Lodi, Wisconsin.
We love these for our little ones. It allows her to maintain proper foot and arch development and stability. She keeps a barrier between her and the NASTY floor that she so desperately wants to walk on while also keeping her little toe beans warm.
One of the best inventions of modern times. It keeps her busy and interactive with almost 30% off this Prime Day, an absolute steal. I love the use of fine and gross motor skills for her tiny little hands and brain.
Why babies have so much that they need to travel with will always be a mystery to us, but- here they are, with all their shit. Literally and figuratively. We love these for us, but they are also so amazing for our little one! They are flat-packed and easy to store. She cannot get into them, nor do we leave them for her to do so. They come with magnetic tops to change out the title of each one, which makes it amazingly easy to grow with her. An absolute must for ALL family members.
Let me tell you, there is NO standardization for expectations for infant-based seating. The straps are always broken, sticky or generally gunky, and nobody can trust a shopping cart. When we are in a pinch- this is our go to. It also doubles as a little mat for her to sit on the plane with too. Its perfect! Rolls up into a little square and you are off!
If your baby is eating solids, these are an absolute MUST. They come in see-through pouches, so you know what you are (and aren’t) getting! Thank goodness - we love that. They have a variety of flavors, and they are shelf-stable. You know what this means?! You don’t have to refrigerate it! AMAZING! Throw a couple of these in the bag for the travel day to keep your little one ingesting “solids,” because even when you don’t want to eat- THEY DO!
If you spend as much time online as we do, you know what this is. They are awesome, and entertaining for the whole family, honestly.
It is so cute, so compact, and so travel-friendly.
If you ask Kelly, these are great for kids who are younger and you are trying to regularly introduce them to allergens. They are grabbable and melt in the mouth, leading to easier eating. If you ask Andrew, they are delicious snacks for adults, too. So do with this information what you will.
There are two main reasons for getting this bad boy right here: (1) Global warming. (2) Babies run warm
The easiest warmer on this side of the divide. It may be a little bulky, but it is consistently the best thing that we have invested in in terms of eating. It works so well, charges quickly, and comes with a port for on-the-go charging as well. Temperatures can be changed and set to your baby’s preference. Works on breast milk, formula, and puree!
You are on the go, and you don’t have your classic sterilizer with you, and your baby throws their pacifier into the great unknown of the Thames River. You got it back, but you are convinced that it’s filthy. You are probably right, and these are for you! Enjoy!
These waterproof airbag holders have come in the clutch so many times. Including, but not limited to, when Southwest Airlines lost our car seat for 24 hours. Always have an Airtag.
This has been our go-to travel chair when adventuring with Turtle. We have used it locally and abroad, and we love it. Not only does it secure to a chair so she feels totally involved, but it also comes with its own tabletop and buckle system, keeping her in place and contained!
One thing that we have been complimented on so many times is our collection of disposable placemats. These are great. They stick to the tabletop; she has her own space where she is able to eat and be a baby, and then we pull it up, fold it, and it gets tossed with the rest of the things on the table. It's been great at those questionable spots that you know are delicious, but their cleaning may not be.
If you haven’t purchased tape for your kiddo on the plane, WTF are you doing? This can be turned into so many different games!
This Guava Lotus Travel Crib is our holy grail. Not only does it double as a pack and play with the opening section, even as a travel crib, it breaks down into the size of a backpack. YOU HEAR ME?! A BACKPACK! Certified Safe Sleep?! YOU KIDDING ME! CERTIFIED! We love certifications! SOLD!
