Recommended family holiday checklist
For the suitcase:
- Clothes – Don’t forget vests / socks / PJs / sleeping bag (if used)
- Wash bag – Don’t forget toothbrush and toothpaste / bodywash / creams / sponge
- Mini medi bag – Don’t forget Calpol and thermometer
- Beakers / formula / dispenser
- Muslins (including giant ones I love Aden & Anais, great to put over mattress or as sheet. Take one that smells of home so they feel settled) / bibs
- Mini steriliser or I sometimes used Milton tablets / bottle brush / Detol wipes
- iPod and speakers or travel mobile / batteries / adaptors / baby monitor
- Toys / books / teddy / favourite snuggle (I only ever take a few)
- Random bits – I often pop to JoJo Maman Bebe before a trip and always take portable bath spots that act as a bath mat / bath toys / mosquito net / mosquito patches
