\n <\/div>\n \n\n\n\n

One of the most important components of preparing for family travel<\/a>, is a packing list! I created this packing list for my own family, and have used some version of it on every single trip we take! As a matter of fact, I make a copy of it and then get to editing quantities and specific location based items. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The list I’m sending you is for a beach vacation lasting one to two weeks! There are sections for an infant, toddler, and older kids, as well as for the adults. My suggestion to you is to save a copy of the document. Then delete, copy, paste and you will have your own personalized list in a matter of minutes! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

About Your Family Beach Vacation Packing List<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The document is divided into four sections: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. A letter from yours truly on how we divide up our gear while traveling and suggestions for making your life easier too!<\/li>
  2. Carry on luggage: for the kids and the adults<\/li>
  3. Check in luggage: including the exact number of items I would take on a beach vacation! I’ve included beach gear as well!<\/li>
  4. Reminders for all the little things you need to do before you hit the road!<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    How We Organize our Luggage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    We aim to have at most 1 carry-on bag per person (5 total for our family) and only 3 luggages (all kids share a duffle). In order to make this happen we divide and conquer the stuff! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In our family that means that Dad carries the electronics and Mom uses her carry-on as a diaper bag as well. This leaves free hands for managing strollers and carseats through the airport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
