Last Sunday we drove to PA with Gia for a visit to the Sesame Place, Please Touch Museum and the PA zoo. Although Sesame Place is around 2 hours from our home but we decided that instead of coming back to Toms River, we will book a hotel near the Sesame place for 3 days and cover all 3 places.
Packing list while on a vacation with kids :
Ø Food on the go like
a. Bottled milk, Pediasure, water / juice/ soda
b. Uncut/ unpeeled fruits like banana (make sure they are not too ripe)
c. Packed food like apple sauce, crackers, cookies or muffins (we love little bites)
d. Fruit snacks (they are good for time pass when kids are getting bored)
e. Rice or wheat cereal if your kids need it
f. Few plastic spoons/ forks
Ø Milk and water bottles ( I also carry some detergent and bottle cleaning brush)
Ø Diapers
Ø Wipes
Ø Diaper rash cream

Ø Clothes (make sure to pack the most comfortable set of clothes for yourself and your kids along with long sleeved sleeping gowns/ pjs, avoid white and light colors)
