Hi Reader!

Happy March! I cannot believe it's March and that Spring Break is just a couple of weeks away! 🍀 ☀️

This is why today is ALL about packing! I don't know about you but sometimes I feel like packing seems like an Olympic sport. 🏅

No matter how many times I do it, I still find myself double-checking that we have everything (because forgetting your kid’s favorite stuffed animal? Nightmare).

That’s why I put together a Family Vacation Packing Guide and List—so you don’t have to second-guess what to bring. Just check things off, toss them in the suitcase, and actually enjoy the trip prep (or at least try to 😉).

A Few Things I Never Leave Without:

✔️ Portable Charger – Because someone’s tablet will die at the worst possible moment.
✔️ Sunscreen & Hats – Even if you think you won’t need them. Trust me.
✔️ Waterproof Phone Pouch – Pool days, beach days, or unexpected water fights—this thing is a lifesaver.
✔️ Snacks (So Many Snacks) – Kids will get hungry at the most inconvenient times. Be ready. 😊
✔️ First-Aid Kit – Bandaids, motion sickness meds, pain relievers... just in case.

💡 Pro Tip: Start packing a few days—or even a week—ahead of time. That way, you’ll have time to grab any last-minute essentials and catch what you almost forgot (because there’s always something).

P.S. Next week, I’m sharing how to keep kids entertained on long travel days—so whether you’re flying or road-tripping, you won’t want to miss it!
