25 Must-Have Travel Items To Keep You Sane While Flying Or Driving

01/22/24 02:16 pm

Updated For Pesach 2024!


It's almost Yom Tov and lots of families are flying or driving to their destination. 
 


We know the struggle of traveling with little ones and we've found solutions to some of those problems.


 
Make sure you have more than enough snacks, a few good travel items and lots of patience! Don't forget Tefilas Haderech :)

 

 

1. A Must Have If You're Flying With A Car Seat

 

If you're kid will be using a car seat to sit on the plane, save yourself the shlep of an extra set of wheels and use this Car Seat Cart instead. It folds up small enough to store in the overhead so you don't have to check it at the gate.

 

 

 

 

 2. Or Glide Through The Airport With This Overhead Stashable Stroller

 

It's cute, it's comfy, and it's tiny! This Travel Stroller By Munchkin folds up small and gets stored in its own carrier, to pop up top in overhead storage.

 

 

 

 

3. A Suction Toy For Airplanes Or Car Windows

 

These little Fidget Baby Toys are perfect to take along with you for long car rides or airplane flights. They stick on to windows or trays and won't get lost on the floor.  Keeps them entertained for hours!

  

 

 

 

4. You Won't Hear A Peep From Them With These Kid Sized Headphones

 

Don't rely on airline headphones for your kids, they will be bulky and won't fit right. Pre-purchase Child Sized Headphones and your child will be comfortable and occupied the whole time. These are also volume limited for your child's hearing safety 

 

 

 

 

5. Or Try This Soft Pair For A Comfier Listening Experience

 

We've used this Fleece Headband Headphones and the kids really love how comfy and cozy these are. These can also be used as an eye mask when lowered over the eyes. The speakers inside the band tend to move around so kids might need assistance in setting them up. 

 

 

 

 

6. We Love These Reusable Water Based Activity Books

 

Another tried and true travel product that the kids love. Fill up the refillable water pen with a bit of water and let the kids go! What's really cool is that eventually the pages dry back up and they can be played with again and again. Melissa & Doug generally have great products, and this Water Wow! Work Pad is no exception!

 

 

 

 

7. A Hot New Toy That Is Easy To Travel And Mess-Free

 

This addictive Magnetic Drawing Tablet is all the rage! Use the attached stylus to pop up the magnet beads to draw, write, and play. To erase your image simply pop the balls down with your finger. Seems simple but it's a whole lotta fun. Plus everything is contained and easy!

 

 

 

 

8. Keep The Games Going With This Brilliant Travel Game

 

By the masters, Melissa & Doug, who know a thing or two about kids' toys! This game has no small pieces, making it a breeze to pack in a backpack and go. It comes with enough variation to keep the kids entertained for hours.

 

 

 

 

9. For Longer Flights A Seat Extender Will Make Your Little One Much More Comfortable

 

Make restless little feet a thing of the past. Now little guys can sit or lay comfortably in their airplane seat. Use this Comfy Seat Extender to allow for more room or for your child to lay flat. Check prior with your airline to see if they allow it on the flight you are taking. 

 

 

 

 

10. This Rotating Snack Box Will Keep Them Occupied For Ages

 

Snack + Activity = Snacktivity! This 5 compartment Rotating Container spins when you push the center button. It allows for you to bring along different snacks without all the packaging. And kids love to play with it for hours! Definitely a win win.

 

 

 

 

11. Pack A Mini Bed For Your Accommodations

 

Going to a hotel, AirBNB or family and don't know if there will be a spare bed? Pack this Toddler Sized Blow Up Bed for a comfortable night's sleep for your little one while traveling! We love that it is self inflating, saving you the headache of bringing a pump with you. 

 

 

 

12. This Solves The Problem Of Choosing Between Glasses Or Contacts

 

Especially for those overnight flights! You can still wear your contacts for the airport and change into your glasses with this Convenient Case that comes with everything you need and in TSA approved amounts for liquid. All while protecting your glasses in the hard shell case of course.

 

 

 

 

13. Go Hands Free With This Simply Brilliant Phone Holder

 

Pretty smart for flying or really wherever you need to go Hands-Free!

 

 

 

 

14. Pack Directly Into These Portable Shelves And Hang Them At Your Destination!

 

Here's a great packing hack! Hang these up, pack your clothes directly in these Portable Hanging Shelves, and place inside your suitcase. When you arrive at your destination, simply pull these out and hang them in your closet. 

 

 

 

 

15. Save Yourself The Headache And Weigh Your Luggage At Home

 

We've all been there, unzipping your suitcase in the middle of the airport and moving things into different bags. Those days are no longer. Simply hook your suitcase up to this Portable Digital Hanging Baggage Scale and lift, to weigh in the comfort of your own home. 

 

 

 

 

16. Bring Along Your Perfume In These Cute Little Travel Containers

 

What a cute little travel hack! Keep your nice perfume bottles at home and avoid the risk of breakage or leakage. Fill the Refillable Atomizer simply by attaching it to your perfume bottle and pumping it. Now you created a travel sized perfume to take along!

 

 

 

 

17. Get The Most Out Of Your Luggage Allowance With These Space Savers

 

These Space Saving Vacuum Sealed Bags are great for packing and for clothing storage. Put your items in the bag and use the sealing vacuum to suck the air out and flatten your clothes. 

 

 

 

 

18. Tik Tok Made Us Do It! These Expandable Towelettes Are A Great Way To Stay Neat On The Go

 

Oh so cute! Pop out a Towel Tablet and spritz on water to see your hand towel expand before your eyes. Keep little faces and hands clean while traveling!

 

 

 

 

19. Once You Go Packing Cube You Never Go Back

 

If you know you know! Packing Cubes are great for containing like items with like, or packing by person. It's also great for people who dread packing (hi!) and lets you pack slowly over a few days, without worrying about the system in your suitcase. Simply pack cube by cube. Once you're ready to pack for reals, you just have to pop them in your suitcase!

 

 

 

 

 

20. Never Rummage On The Filthy Floor Of A Plane For A Sippy Cup Again

 

Another little hack we never thought we might need! Keep the sippy cups and bottles always nearby with one of these handy Sippy Cup Straps. Your child will always know where to their water bottle is (and will save you groping around on the airplane floor!
