If you plan to travel during the holiday season, we have a tip that can make packing for baby a cinch! Since baby clothes are small, they often get lost amongst adult clothes or sets get separated in the suitcase or diaper bag. To keep sets together and make packing more compact, place each one of baby's outfits (shirt, pants, dress, diaper cover, onesie/t-shirt, socks, tights) in a sandwich size Ziploc bag and squeeze the air out before sealing. Now, all you have to do is grab a bag and you are ready to fully dress baby. No more lost socks or missing shirts! When you take baby's clothes off, drop them back in the bag so you arrive home with all the clothes you took with you.
This also works well for keeping a change of clothing in your vehicle. The bags are compact enough to throw in the glove compartment or console while still keeping clothes clean and fresh. The bag also serves as a great 'dirty duds' bag for messy clothes after changing. This can be a lifesaver if you have one of those babies that seems to overflow every diaper you put on him/her.
Have toddlers? Upgrade to quart or gallon size bags. Pack their suitcase and then your toddler can choose his/her own outfit each day. This can make your little one feel like a 'big kid'!
Please note: We do not recommend placing wet or soiled clothing back in the bag for an extended period of time as they may mold or mildew, especially in warmer temperatures.
Safety warning: As with all plastic bags, please keep bags away from babies and small children as they pose a choking hazard.
Happy Holidays and safe traveling!
