Car accessories you will love, when traveling with kids

Seat Covers

This is highly recommended to prolong the life of the upholstery on your vehicle’s seats. Seat covers aren’t expensive and are what I would say a must especially if you have little kids who snack a lot in the back seat.

Backseat Organizer

If your kids are like mine, toys, books and games are stuffed into the sides of the car and between seats. Backseat organizers are a great way to keep all of that in one place, right in front of your child’s seat, within arm’s length reach, so you don’t have to keep turning around to find lost toys.

Window Shades

Your car’s windows may be tinted but placing additional window shades are worth the effort especially with the scorching summer in places like Texas.

Portable Trash Can

If kids are taught to throw trash away immediately, the chore of cleaning up the mess in the car, once a week, won’t be as tedious. One portable trash can is enough but just make sure it’s emptied after every drive.

Trunk Organizer

This is another must as things can pile up when stashed away in the trunk, resulting in clutter and no space to carry groceries or even find what one needs amongst the pile of stuff. A trunk organizer helps keep things organized, neat and above all, in one compact area in the trunk.

Slumber Sling

If you’re planning a long road trip, don’t leave home without a Slumber Sling. This fantastic product helps support and keep a young passenger’s head from flopping forward, when asleep, during the drive.
