Checklist for Travel Packing with Baby and Toddlers

Image Source

I compiled a detailed checklist before our Goa trip. And believe me it was so useful. Just remember its always better to reduce the amount of clothes that you carry for yourself, gives you a good reason to shop too

Clothes+Shoes

Minimum 10 sets of clothes, beachwear, and 2 pairs of shoes one for indoor and another outdoors. During winters sweaters, caps.

Bath Set

Towels, Soap, Shampoo, Lotion, Sunscreen

Diapering

Diapers, Wet tissues, Plastic covers (to throw off diapers), rash Cream

Bug and Mosquito Kit

Odomos, mosquito repellent coils etc

Grooming Kit

Clips, Rubber Bands, Combs

Toys and Books

Few familiar toys and books, and some hand toys to distract while traveling.

Medical Kit

Dettol, band-aids, colic meds, Fever meds (sinarest, crocin), ear and nose drops for air travel. My doc prescribed sleep meds which we never used. You can carry it with you if they get too cranky

Snacks

Biscuits, cakes, rusk, yogurt etc for travel

Utensils

We carried an electric cooker so no cooking vessels, 2 bowls, 2 spoons

Food

Cerelac, cereal powder, salt, jaggery.

Rice and Dal Powder, masalas.

Tetra packed milk

Everything in zip pouches.

Washing

Dish washing liquid, scrub and some washing soap if kids clothes gets soiled.

The list looks long but if organized well, it fits into one bag. I will update more on what I cooked etc. Do let me know how your list looks like.
