Made in the Shade
We’ve got our backyards covered (thanks to these practical and pretty sun umbrellas), but when it comes to vacationing, we like something a little more portable.
Broadstone Pop up Sun Shelter, $60. Available at Canadian Tire
A Big Kid Now!
Let them feel grown up with their very own backpack; great for car trips or on a plane, they can pack their bag with snacks (there’s even an insulated compartment), books and any other travel-essentials.
Skip Hop Zoo Packs, $25. Available at www.cheekymonkey.ca
Jot It Down
Mark the trip while also encouraging their creativity with a fun travel journal (the fact that it also teaches them capitals, foreign currency and much more will be our little secret).
Mudpuppy My Travel Journal, $11. Available at www.raspberrykids.com
Say, Cheese!
A kid-friendly digital camera (along with a wallet-friendly price tag) makes for hours of entertainment and some fun memories to re-live down the road.
Discovery Kids Digital Camcorder, $50. Available at www.sears.ca
Colour Me Good
Eco-friendly crayons are a great addition to any suitcase; all you need is paper, some colouring crafts and you’ve got a ready-made rainy-day saviour.
Recycled Eco Star crayons, $11. Available at www.lavishandlime.com.
Fresh Tip: Bringing favourite items they’re used to (like these from the bathroom) will help make the transition from home – to away from home, easier.
