The Wanderlittles team takes packing seriously. 

Very seriously. 

We even have an entire page dedicated to packing advice, and will soon be bringing you a "What's in Our Carry-on" blog series. Whether putting together an activity bag for a road trip or curating a carry-on bag, the Wanderlittles moms know you need to be smart when putting together your bag o' tricks. It could make the difference between hours of misery and smooth sailing. 

Enter the Original KidKit. Made in the USA with minimal packaging with kid-safe materials (phthalate-free and recyclable dry-erase vinyl, compostable sticker sleeves, etc.) the KidKit is not only adorable but full of educational and creative activities to entertain your child for hours. Hours, people! Whether you are going on a road trip, plane ride, even to church or a restaurant, the KidKit needs to come along. 

But don't take my word for it. KidKit creator Jemma was kind enough to send us one to try out, and my 5-year old said,"This is so cool!" and then didn't actually say a lot of anything as she got to work playing with the different activities. Her favorite was probably the Wikki Stix (do you remember those things?) and the dry erase SMART SLEEVE® activity book ("I'm really allowed to write on this thing?!" She's new to dry erase markers). :) My favorite parts were the adventure booklet and, actually, the bag itself. I am quite a connoisseur of bags, and this one is a great size and shape, with plenty of room for more items, yet small enough to be packed in a larger bag if needed.

I like those board books that my kids can color on with dry erase markers.
