| Category | What to Pack | Pro Tips |
|---|---|---|
| βοΈ Clothing | 2–3 changes of clothes, pajamas, underwear, light jacket | Adjust for weather: sun hat, swimwear, or long sleeves |
| βοΈ Toiletries | Baby body wash, toothbrush, toothpaste, washcloth, wet wipes | Most hotels don’t provide baby-friendly products |
| βοΈ Diapering | Diapers, changing mat, disposable bags, travel potty (if needed) | Keep extras in a quick-grab pouch |
| βοΈ Feeding | Snacks, meals (if needed), water bottle, thermos, utensils, bib | Great to have familiar food for picky eaters |
| βοΈ Sleep Comforts | Comfort toy, pacifier, travel pillow, sleep sack | Helps ease bedtime in a new place |
| βοΈ Gear | Stroller, baby carrier, sun hat, raincoat, sunscreen, mosquito repellent | Must-haves for outdoor spots like farms or parks |
| βοΈ Entertainment | Sticker books, tablet (with downloaded shows), storybooks, small toys | Perfect for waiting time in cafés or lobbies |
| βοΈ Medicine & First Aid | Fever meds, cold patches, tummy relief, plasters, insect repellent, emergency contact list | Keep all in a labeled pouch for easy access |
β One bag per person: Let your child carry a tiny backpack with their toys or snacks
β Layered packing: Essentials like wet wipes & meds on top — easy to grab
β Trolley + Grab Bag: Large items in a suitcase, small must-haves in a parent backpack
