Tips For Holiday Travel With Young Children

(NAPSI) - If you’re among the millions of Americans who will hit the roads and skies this holiday season, a few hints on packing may make traveling more enjoyable.

Holiday Travel Tips

•Make a list, check it twice: A week before the travel date, make a list of everything you’ll need. Staying organized will keep you from packing, unpacking and repacking to confirm you have all the essentials. Giving yourself a week to think about what you need will help with any anxieties over forgotten items that might arise.

•Kids join the packing fun: Instead of carrying a variety of toys, books and other forms of entertainment for your children, allow each child to pack one small bag of favorites. Remind them they have to carry it so they’ll be less likely to bring unnecessary items.

•Over the limit: If you’re flying, avoid overweight baggage fees by packing dual-purpose products to free up space. For example, Johnson’s® Baby Powder helps leave skin feeling smooth, soft and dry. In fact, a recent Harris Interactive poll revealed that 23 percent of adults use baby powder as a deodorant. Another great travel item is Johnson’s Baby Oil Gel. Apply it right after a shower to help lock in 10 times more moisture on wet skin than an ordinary lotion can on dry skin. Both products can be found at any major drugstore or mass retail store.

•Be prepared: It’s bound to happen. Spills and messes seem to always be present while traveling with little ones. Pack a small emergency kit complete with Johnson’s Hand & Face Wipes, an easy solution for these messy on-the-go moments.

• Mini must-haves: Not checking your luggage, but still want to carry all your essentials to look your best on your family vacation? Pack a variety of Johnson’s new travel-sized products to get through the security line with ease. And since these products can be used by children and adults, there’s no need to purchase a complete set of travel products for each member of the family. With Johnson’s travel-sized items, you save both money and space in your bags.
