14 Tips for Traveling with a Toddler on a Plane
We just took our third trip with Mackenzie, but this was the first since she’s been super mobile so we knew it would be tougher to keep her in her seat. We definitely had a lot to travel with, but somehow we made it work! Below I’m sharing all my tips to make traveling with a toddler hopefully just a little bit easier: Flying with kids is all about survival mode in my opinion.

How We Created A Purposeful Play Area for Our Toddler
We don’t have a designated playroom on the main floor of our house, so we created a section of our dining room (which rarely gets used) for Mackenzie’s toys. When she was a baby we just had out a plush floor mat with toys, but as she got older I could see all of her stuff slowly taking over the rest of our dining room. I wanted to create a more purposeful place for her to play. Since she’s not a baby anymore we don’t necessarily need a big floor mat for her to play on. I like that she now has a table she can play at! Below is…

Brand Highlight: Why I Love Lovevery!
My brand highlight posts, where I share why I love a certain brand, continues this week with Lovevery! We started receiving Lovevery play kits when Mackenzie was 5 months old. Her grandparents gave it to her during the holidays last year and we are still getting them at 17 months old. We also have other products from them like the play gym and stroller. Let me tell you why I absolutely love this brand! The toys are super interactive for babies and kids, but without any lights or sounds. I know speaking from experience that kids love toys that light up or play music, but after a while it starts…
