Toddler Packing List

When we travel with our little guy, we have to bring A LOT of stuff. And, by A LOT of stuff, I mean a full packing list for him on loose-leaf paper, front and back. Honestly, when preparing to be away from home for a week or more, it really helps to have a checklist and everything we need.


So, I would like to share my list with you, just in case you need your own to check off. Please keep in mind that this is the list I used for a one week family vacation with my son when he was 16-months-old and we went to Walt Disney World and 23-months-old when we went on a Caribbean cruise.

The Fabulous List:
