Tips for packing for a day walking with kids

When you are packing for day trip where you will be out walking with the kids consider these points

Take the pram if your toddler is likely to tire.
Choose a bag that is comfortable to carry such as a small backpack (unless you have the pram you can hook it onto).
Wear comfortable clothing and appropriate footwear.
Layer your clothing for climate changes during the day.
Pack nappies, wipes, disposable change mats, nappy sacks and spare clothes for all young children.
Take water, milk, formula, dummies, and snacks your child likes.
- Also take water and food for all older members of the family.
Remember your child’s favourite comfort toy.
- This is need to help them sleep and when they get anxious.
If you are in a warm climate take a hat, sunscreen and swimwear for all. Actually take these if your in the snow as well.
For older children and tweens get them their own special daypack to fill with their own goodies.
