Traveling With Newborns
| If you are a new parent, you will eventually have to show more than just photos of your bundle of joy. Friends and relatives will want to see the real thing. It’s great to have friends and family eager to share in your joy, but the prep for traveling with newborns and toddlers can be challenging. A “kids-to-go” bag will help keep pace with the seemingly endless holiday visits. Keep it stocked and ready to go with some of the fine products described here. |
 Get yourself a nice cotton canvas bag with lots of pockets. Agree with your partner what goes in each compartment, so that both of you will always know where to find the cotton swaps or baby wipes. We like this one from AmeriBag. The AmeriBag Healthy Back Baby Bag is ergonomically designed to take the stress off your back; a blessing when you are carting around all the bottles, diapers and other baby paraphernalia. There is even a special parents’ section, a key clip and an external cosmetic case.  |
 Baby WipesPLAYSKOOL Cottony Cloths are our top pick for baby wipes. These ultra-thick wipes are soft against baby’s skin because they contain real cotton. The cotton fiber also provides additional strength---especially when wet---so they won’t break or tear during use. What’s more, they come in a variety of sizes, including a 16-count slim pack that fits nicely into a baby bag, handbag or backpack. Look for the ENHANCED™ Seal of Cotton to ensure you are getting wipes with real cottony softness. |
 Burping ClothsLike a complement to the dinner bell, the post-feeding burp can be a welcome sound. Soft cotton burping cloths, such as these, lend flair and polish to meal time. |
 Cotton Swabs Cotton swabs have 1001 uses and the portable 30-count travel pack from Q-tips is just the right size for a baby bag. Again, look for the Seal of Cotton to be sure you are getting all the softness and absorbency of real cotton in your swabs. |
 Just-in-Case JacketIt’s always a good idea to keep a sweater or jacket in the to-go bag. You never know when the weather might shift or when you might find yourself in a cooler-than-normal environment. This soft terry Bug Hoodie from Gymboree is ideal in comfort and style. |
 Just-in-Case BodysuitLike the Just-in-Case Jacket or Sweater, you would do well to stow away a change of clothes for your baby. This cotton bodysuit hardly takes up any room in a baby bag and you will be glad it’s there should some baby formula, strained squash or other food-related stains soil your child’s wardrobe. |
