I love to go on trips with my kids. To get to have an adventure with them. We live six hours from my parents, five from my sister, three and a half from my brother and my husband’s family have a lake house that is ten hours away. So, we do a lot of traveling. To help make things easier on myself I have put together a travel bag. Everything to make car rides easier in one bag. It is always packed and ready for our next adventure.
Lets look inside my travel bag…..
I got the bag from the Dollar Tree. They have a great selection of bags for a great price ($1).
A Lap Table, all my older kids have one. There are different styles available to get. Mine I got from Costco. They came with a coloring book, stickers, and crayons. I plan to get one for the baby some time in the next two years.
I keep extra coloring books and crayons in the bag. I get them from the Dollar Tree. I also keep a variety of the play packs in the bag. These are nice because they have fun sheets to color, stickers and crayons. I usually find these at the Dollar Tree, Target and recently Michael’s craft store.
Because I have small children, I keep extra baby wipes and tissue in the bag. You never know when you need extra.
I also keep cups and snack bowls in the bag. I like the cups that have a bowl in the lid. Drinks and snacks in one. My two-year old is a little young for straw cups (she likes to pull the straw out and play in it), so I have a sippy cup and one of the those snack bowls with a lid she can stick her fingers in to pull out the snack.
I hope this helps you with your own travel bag. If you have anything that could be added, please comment below.
