Traveling with kids can be difficult to say the least, especially when you’re flying. Not only do you have to negotiate your surroundings, but you’ve got to make sure that you’ve got everything your little ones need at close hand. That’s why I was pleased to find a Carry on Backpack that’s been designed to cope with everything that traveling with kids can throw at you. So, let’s have a look at how a travel backpack could help you have a stress-free journey or day-out.

1. It’s Big Enough to Carry Pretty Much Everything

With a massive 35 liters of space divided up into compartments, you’ll be able to fit everything you need for a flight or day trip inside. However, if you do need some extra room, or you can’t resist buying souvenirs, an expandable zip gives you another 10 liters of space. You’ll also find a removable sleeve for electronics, together with a handy set of front pockets, so it’s easy to slip out the kids tablets on the move or when passing through security, and keep all your travel documents in one place.

2. A Backpack That’s Versatile

Unlike traditional backpacks, this travel backpack is versatile. You can use the top and side handles to carry it as you would a normal suitcase, add a shoulder strap, or release the hidden straps to convert it into a backpack.

3. It’s Easy to Move Around with the Option of a Hands-Free Travel Backpack

Getting from A to B is easy with a travel backpack. You can simply pick it up and put it securely on your shoulder or back to negotiate stairs, cobbles or other uneven surfaces, and still leave your hands free to hold onto your kids or a pushchair.

4. It’s Easy to Keep Everything Organized

Traveling with kids is never easy, especially if they’re young. There’s all the usual baby and toddler paraphernalia, plus drinks, snacks, changes of clothes and the ‘can’t-leave-behind’ comfort blankets and toys. The compartments inside the travel backpack make it easy to give some semblance of order to your things, making it easier to access the things you need quickly and most often.

5. It’s perfect for adult getaways or business too

You wouldn’t dream of taking a whimsical baby bag on your adult only holiday or lugging it into the office. However, this travel backpack is a bit like a chameleon; it’s useful in so many scenarios. It’s perfect for that romantic weekend away, or for taking your notes and laptop to a business presentation, or even for making sure you have enough kit with you for an after-work session at the gym.

The Takeaway

Who said that traveling with children means lugging along a bag covered with cute puppies, spaceships or princesses? A sleek minimalist, multifunctional carry-on backpack will give you so many more options whether you want to simplify traveling with your kids, you’re traveling professionally or you simply want a space-saving bag that will allow you to travel minimally.
