What to pack for kids on vacation

Our honest opinion of the best thing to pack for kids would definitely be an electronic device that can help store your movies, games, books, coloring books, etc like an IPad or Kindle.  This will make your luggage a lot lighter as you can remove the toys they like to play with, books you will back, DVD with the DVD players, coloring books, etc in a bag just for your child. You can however add on the snacks, toys, blanket/pillow, etc. The best thing about this is that you can prepare a bag just for your child to carry and it’ll be light!Some Suggestions to Download for the IPad/Kindle before your big trip
