Why stop traveling when you have kids? Sure it might be a tad bit more stressful, you may need to pack another bag but the adventure and memories are priceless. In just the first year of becoming parents, we have been on 4 planes, at least 6 camping trips, day trips, weekend trips, and small and road trips. If you are worried about traveling with young kids I am here to ease these hesitations. A major stressor is the daunting packing list. I have compiled a list of our favorite travel items to make it simple and easy for you to grab and go. Also, Check out my latest blog on Pro Travel Tips with a baby- Airport to Beach.
