10 travel essentials for kids during pandemic

travel essentials for kids during pandemic

Travelling is indeed fun and exciting, but it’s not so much fun if it is done while handling a kid. It is a little harsh on the kids considering their sensibility and limited physical capability. Especially in this pandemic, when there are restrictions and rules everywhere, special cautions have to be taken. While traveling with kids of different age groups, some goods can come in handy. So before you tie up your seatbelts, take a look at this article and make sure you have packed these essentials.

1)Hand Sanitizer and masks

In this pandemic, we all know the importance of hand sanitizer. It’s very admirable that we are developing this habit of Using hand sanitizer. We should maintain this even after the pandemic is over. The kids are being accustomed to using hand sanitizers from time to time which is a good thing.

About masks, kids are not fans of masks. For them, themed masks will be better. So you can keep them in your bag.

2) Towels

For kids of any age, towels can be handy. For kids under two years, towels can instantly make a surface on which babies can take a nap. The towel can also work as a wrapper for kids older than that. So towels are a must.

3) plastic bags

Always keep extra plastic bags. Many kids tend to vomit when they are boarding a train or plane. Sometimes landscape also makes them vomit. Therefore a bag full of plastic bags will help you not only to vomit but also to keep the wet clothes of the kid.

This will also be excellent reuse of plastic. And if you are worried about the environment, you can also use disposable plastics.

4)Health box

Regardless of age, this is mandatory for all. A health box containing the necessaries should be there in any situation, not only traveling. Besides the first aids and bandages, you should always keep cough medicines, fever medicine, and digestion tablets inside the health box.

5)Pacifiers

Your kid may feel irritation or dissatisfaction. In that case,  the pacifier is the solution as it would divert their attention.

6)Soft toys

Many parents deny taking toys with the kids on a trip. This may cause them a displeasure. We suggest you keep the toys in your bag ( preferably soft toys) to avoid getting bored and feeling lonely.

7) Neck Pillows

Travels often don’t go as planned. Sometimes the bedtime comes when beds are not abundantly available. Suppose you are on the plane still, and your kid is feeling drowsy. A neck pillow will serve as a comfort giver.

8) Travel Stroller and Toddler Carrier

you can bring your everyday stroller along for your travels, but a big and bulky stroller isn’t ideal for getting through the airport, stowing away on the airplane, and then fitting in the trunk of a rental car.

Travel strollers strike a balance between traditional and umbrella stroller styles. They’re lighter than the standard stroller, easy to fold, and compact when collapsed.

9) Special plates

Always bring a couple of plates and dishes for your little one especially. It will be the safest during the pandemic.

These snack cups better be spill-Proof, leak-Proof, and break-Proof.
