Reel by Alison Hanford | Real Life Mom & Baby
6 planes by 6 months ✈️ and I can confidently say: preparation = peace. We love to be on the go, and when you feel prepared, it makes travel ALMOST feel easy breezy. These are the items we would not fly without: 1️⃣ @doonausa Car Seat & Stroller – From car seat to stroller in literal seconds. Uber? Rental car? Straight to exploring? Done. Worth. It. It’s also our primary car seat at home, so it’s not just a “travel” purchase collecting dust. 2️⃣ Pop-up travel playpen – This inexpensive little gem folds flat and lives in our diaper bag. Perfect for creating a clean-ish, contained roll-around zone when the airport floor feels… questionable. 3️⃣ @wildbird carriers – The Aerial Buckle Wrap is my MVP for travel. Soft, stretchy, cozy = instant nap while I speed-walk to our gate. We also pack the more structured Aerial Buckle Carrier for walks and on-the-go exploring (my husband loves to wear this one). 4️⃣ Disposable changing pads – Because I do not want airport germs coming home as a souvenir. Use it, toss it, never think about it again. 5️⃣ Pre-measured formula servings – We pack both a reusable dispenser and single-use sleeves. I like options. Different sizes ready. The slim one-and-done packets are especially clutch when space is tight. 6️⃣ Suction toys – Window seat. Tray table. Restaurant high chair. Suction toys are your built-in entertainment system, no WiFi required. Comment “travel” and I’ll send this list + more of my go-to travel favorites.
