I think I have found the ULTIMATE packing hack, especially for kids and babies. I tend to overpack and having kids only made this worse! When you pack so much you HAVE to be semi-organized or you wont be able to find what you need.
THREE WORDS: Hanging Shoe Organizer
Itβs as simple as 1,2,3!
- Place your outfits in the shoe pockets
- Roll it up when its full and place it in a suitcase
- Unroll it and hang it when you get to your destination
I’ve used this process a few times, but after having my second child it really came in handy. This summer when we went to the beach for a week, each boy got their own organizer plus one for me. We are headed to Disney World next week for 4 days and this time the boys are sharing an organizer. I love this because as a visual person I can see what we have. (hello coordinating outfits for the whole fam!) It also makes it so easy getting everyone together and out the door once we are on vacation because you literally just grab the outfit and go. (Helpful for the husband/daddy too! π)
A few other items I cannot pack for a trip without are packing cubes and this set of different size pouches! My family makes fun of me because Im always putting bags inside of bags inside of bags! π
