Travel Tip: Packing Made Easy a.k.a. How To Pack for Kids

Last year after baby boy was born, my entire family came to visit. My sister-in-law shared with me how she simplifies packing for her 4 girls. I thought it was ingenious, so now I am sharing it with you:
  1. Buy a box of the gallon sized Ziploc bags.
  2. Put one outfit in a bag (undies, tights/socks, skirt/pants, shirt, sweater, etc.).
  3. Label the bag with the child's name.
  4. Repeat for each child and for each day you will be gone.
Now you kids outfits are neatly packed, and easy to pull out of the suitcase. Plus, you'll save time by not having to coordinate outfits. Heck! Since the outfits are already coordinated, the kiddos could even choose which one to wear.
