Watch our review below:
I thought Packing Cubes were so un-necessary, until I read the reviews and bought a set. Now, we can absolutely not live without these! Amazon has sets of different sizes and the quality is great, and it barely weighs anything:
Go ahead and laugh! Why would we even travel to places where we would need an RFID Belt, right? Unfortunately, pickpocketing and theft happen in the finest cities (Hello Barcelona!). This keeps your cash and IDs hidden and hard to reach:
I don’t know about you, but we allow our kids to have some screen-time on flights. These Kidz Gear headphones are great because they have volume control:

Foldable Duffel Bag. I cannot tell you the number of times this bag has come in handy. It folds down to almost nothing, and it is great if you have done any last minute shopping, or as a beach bag. One bag, many uses!

Water WOW Kids Activity book. Great for younger kids. There is no mess or cleaning up. Keeps the kids busy for hours.
