Things to Consider When Picking Registry Items - Travel Edition
Chances are that you plan to travel with your little one in the first several years of their lives. As you build your registry, here are few items to consider adding to make your life easier when you take to the skies, the road, or the (train) tracks!
Travel Strollers
You probably already have your eye on a “travel system”, a jogging stroller or a wagon - all of which are amazing! But the kicker with these when you travel on planes is that you have to gate check them, and then wait on the jet bridge for them to be unloaded. If the idea of doing that with a baby or toddler who has just been couped up on a plane for hours sounds like sticking your hand in a fire ant mound, take a look at these travel strollers that fit in the overhead bin!
BabyZen YoYo $449
Bugaboo Butterfly $449
Zoe The Traveler $249
Baby Wraps + Carriers
This is probably an item that is already on your registry. However, I would be remiss if I didn’t list out a few that are smaller/packable so you can save precious space in your carry on or even in your purse!
Ergobaby Away $119
Baby K’Tan $60
Baby Bjorn Mini $77
Solly Baby Wrap $74
“Fun” Transportation Options
Sometimes strollers just aren’t fun enough for kids that would rather fly the plan than ride in it. Here are some fun alternatives to strollers that will still help you whisk your little one around:
Doona Liki Trike $250
Mia Mily Carry On $359
JetKids BedBox $229
Trunki $80
Travel Cribs + Play Yards
Sleeping on-the-go can be stressful! Getting everything set up for your kiddo to get a good night’s sleep should be as easy as possible! A few things to consider when adding a travel crib or play yard to your registry:
Is it easy to fold? Bonus points if you can set it up AND take it down one-handed!
Does it transition from infant to toddler heights?
Here are some options to consider:
4moms Breeze Plus $299
Chicco Dash $178
Nuna Sena Aire $350
Bugaboo Stardust $350
Travel will always be a wildcard with little ones, but hopefully some of these items can make their way onto your registry to make travel easier and more enjoyable for the whole family!
