Essential for traveling by car with the baby

For sure many of you have gone on vacation by car. Traveling with children can be an unforgettable experience, both for good and for bad, so it is important that you take into account what are the essential things to travel by car with the baby. 

There is a basic kit that you need to have prepared to deal with the long hours driving with the kids. Besides choosing times of the day in which they can sleep a good time, such as at dawn or at the time of the siesta, so that the trip does not become eternal, there are things you can not miss to entertain the baby or be possible contingencies.

To entertain them

When travel with a baby, if the baby is small, you can use mobile toys that are placed in the car seat. In this way, the toys hang over him and the child can stretch out his hand to touch them. They are also ideal rattles, books and soft toys that can touch and take to the mouth without problem.

Articles of hygiene, clothing and food

If you travel with a baby, the child should wear comfortable, light and breathable clothes, without zippers or elastic that tighten. Also flexible and comfortable shoes that you can remove inside the car.

You must have a change of clothes on hand if there is any liquid, stain, in case there are pee leaks or the child vomits. If it's a diaper baby, of course you have to bring a pair of diapers for the change.

Also carry wet wipes and if you prefer, also a washcloth size towel, I always take it in case you have to dry anything (or kid).

Finally, do not forget to always carry a bottle of water to drink, some cookies, and if you carry a cooler, you can take some juices or fresh yogurt drinking, always with straw to avoid spills. Take advantage of the rest areas on the road to take a snack and stretch your legs.

To make the trip more comfortable

I also wear a small cushion to support the head because I feel sorry for how they hang their head when they fall asleep ... the neck pain that has to give!

If you are a fan of air conditioning and will travel with a baby, bring some blanket too, because children are usually cold.
