10 Must-Have Travel Season Essentials

Travelling opens up a world of adventure, filled with opportunities for exploration and relaxation.  To get the most out of any summer vacation or trip, it is very important to make sure you have all the essentials you need for a hassle-free experience.  Being organised and prepared is even more important when you are travelling with little ones. Here is our list of the 10 must-have travel season essentials that will make your trip lighter and hassle-free!  

  1. Backpacks for each traveller: Invest in backpacks of different sizes to cater to the needs of every family member. A mini backpack for toddlers, a medium-sized one for growing kids and a larger backpack for longer trips that is suitable for teens and adults. Choose durable, lightweight options that provide ample storage and comfortable carrying options.


  2. A classic travel pouch for toiletries or gadgets: When travelling, organising your essentials is key. Opt for a versatile travel pouch to keep your toiletries and travel essentials organised and secure. They are great for holding a range of accessories and gadgets like chargers and headphones.  


  3. Large clear pouches for on-the-go travel: Clear pouches are game-changers, especially during on-the-go travel days or beach trips. Use them to store your essentials, such as sunscreen, lip balm and small accessories. The transparent design allows you to quickly locate items while complying with any airport security regulations you might face.


  4. Small clear pouches for easy organisation: Keep your small travel essentials, such as earphones, charging cables, adapters and mini toiletries neatly organised in clear pouches. These compact organisers make it easy to find what you need without digging through your bags.


  5. Kids storage pouch for travel-friendly games and essentials: Keep kids' travel essentials, including travel-friendly games and toys, in a dedicated storage pouch. This will help children stay organised and ensures their entertainment options are easily accessible during the journey, making their travel experience more enjoyable.
  1. Travel-friendly games for kids: Make every journey more enjoyable for kids with travel-friendly games. Compact board games, flash cards and magnetic games are ideal for flights, trains or road trips and will keep them busy so you don’t have to hear “are we there yet?”.
  1. Insulated water bottles: Insulated water bottles are essential for staying hydrated while traveling, keeping your drinks cold or hot for extended periods. With different sizes available in the Citron range, there's a perfect option for everyone. A 250ml bottle is ideal for toddlers, while a 350ml bottle is great for growing kids. Big kids and teens can benefit from a 500ml bottle, while adults will appreciate the ample capacity of the 750ml size. These bottles offer insulation to maintain desired drink temperatures, ensuring refreshing sips on hot days and comforting sips during chilly journeys.


  2. Thermal food jars to keep travel snacks fresh: For picky eaters or those who prefer homemade snacks, thermal food jars are a must-have. These food jars keep travel snacks at the desired temperature for an extended period, allowing you to pack your kid's favourite snacks and keep them fresh and tasty throughout the journey.


  3. Snack boxes for travel-friendly treats: Readily available snacks in a variety of types and flavours will keep everyone’s tummies from rumbling and help prevent fatigue and frustration. A compact, durable and bento-style snack box like the Tritan, is easy to carry and can hold multiple items such as trail mix, fruits or crisps without mixing or spilling.


  4. Travel mug for a quick caffeine fix: For adults who need their caffeine fix during long trips, a travel mug is an essential companion. Look for spill-proof, insulated options that keep your favourite hot beverages warm and enjoyable throughout the journey.
