So here’s the quick and easy overview:
-
Label and stuff a ziploc bag for each night of the trip with pajamas and clothes for the next day.
-
Create one bag that stays in the car with things like a spare swimsuit, shoes, outfit, and sweatshirt.
-
Have children pack their toiletries like toothbrush and toothpaste, hair brush, and hair elastics in one small bag and have them leave that in their backpack.
-
Each night when you get to the hotel, grab the labeled ziploc bag for that stop from the child’s suitcase and put it in their backpack along with their toiletries bag.
That’s it! Keep it simple and give the kids some independence and you’re all set.
