Escaping winter to a warmer destination?” text_direction=”default”][\/split_line_heading][vc_column_text text_direction=”default”]If you\u2019re heading to a sunny destination, transitioning between climates can be tricky. Packing smart is the message here:<\/p>\n
–\u00a0 Layer up for the trip:<\/strong> Dress in breathable layers that you can easily remove when you arrive. Start with warm outerwear and cozy base layers for winter departures. Pack light, summer-friendly outfits in your carry-on for a quick change but make sure there\u2019s enough space to pack your winter layers back in!<\/p>\n – Warm outfit for the return trip:<\/strong> Preparing for a long trip back home feels better if you\u2019ve packed a fresh, warm outfit beforehand. So, include a clean, cozy change of clothes just for the journey back home. For kids, playful warm onesies are ideal! They stay warm while having the freedom to play comfortably in airports.<\/p>\n – Don\u2019t forget sun protection:<\/strong> Pack a family-friendly UV sunscreen (roll-on or spray for quick application) and use it after landing when changing clothes. An easy-to-attach sunshade for strollers<\/a> can protect delicate skin from intense UV rays.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”55468″ image_size=”full” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”None” animation_movement_type=”transform_y” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][split_line_heading animation_type=”line-reveal-by-space” font_style=”h2″ text_color=”#ff7277″ line_reveal_by_space_text_effect=”default” content_alignment=”default” mobile_content_alignment=”inherit” link_target=”_self” text_content=”2. How to keep winter road trips enjoyable?” text_direction=”default”][\/split_line_heading][vc_column_text text_direction=”default”]\n Long winter drives can be fun, but the cold and darkness can make stops less inviting, right? Here are some helpful tips to make your ride smoother:<\/p>\n – Plan strategic stops:<\/strong> Research family-friendly rest stops with clean, warm facilities and space for kids to stretch their legs indoors! Many gas stations only have outdoor playgrounds, which aren\u2019t ideal in rain or snow, and believe me, you don\u2019t want wet clothes when getting back into the car!<\/p>\n – Roll-up bags<\/strong> that save space when empty are great for packing extra layers or wet clothes from unexpected snow fun, just in case \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n – Combat dry winter air and darkness:<\/strong> our Sweet Dreamz Humidifier<\/a> is ideal to prevent stuffy noses and dry skin also on the go. It can double as a comforting item for nighttime routines once you reach your destination and is very handy as an extra light in the back of the car.<\/p>\n – <\/strong>Use small, reusable containers to keep snacks, toys, or baby essentials organized in the car. Bonus points if they can hang from a stroller or diaper bag for easy access while riding. Check out our Yummy Grab&Go<\/a>!<\/p>\n
