Holiday Checklist

July 12, 2013
R helping me pack!

I can’t believe in just 7 days time we will be jetting off to Spain for our first holiday with the twins! I’m both excited and nervous. Excited because I’m looking forward to relaxing by the pool and spending an interupted week with Twin Daddy and our girls. Nervous because I am worried about how our twins will cope with the flight, the heat and the strange hotel room!

I thought I would share with you what I’m packing for our twins in the hope that it might help you if you’re planning a trip away with toddlers, but also in the hope that if I have forgotten to pack something important or useful you can let me know!

  • 8 evening dresses
  • 2 short sleeve vests
  • 9 t-shirts
  • 2 pairs of shorts
  • 4 hooded beach robes (review coming soon)
  • 4 pairs of socks
  • 4 cardigans
  • 2 pairs of jeans
  • 2 pairs of leggings
  • 4 bodysuits
  • 4 sunhats
  • Cotton buds
  • Plasters
  • 1 bottle of aftersun
  • 3 bottles of suncream
  • Insect repellant spray
  • Insect ease spray
  • Mosquito fly and wasp killer
  • 2 swaddles
  • 2 swim jackets (review coming soon)
  • 2 sleeping bags
  • 4 packs of swim nappies (special offer in boots)
  • 3 packs of nappies
  • Travel size tube of Sudocrem
  • 2 pairs of jelly shoes
  • 2 pairs of normal shoes
  • Calpol
  • Nurofen
  • Bibs
  • Spoons
We’re lucky that there are 6 of us going so we can spread the packs of nappies across a number of suitcases!

Handy Tip: Roll clothes instead of folding them – it saves space!

I’ll be writing another blog post about what I’ll be bringing in our carry on luggage for our girls too.

I started Twin Mummy and Daddy in 2012.  

Over time Twin Mummy and Daddy has gone from strength to strength. I write about our family life, my love for running and our passion for adventure and travel.  

We’ve also started living a more eco-friendly life. As such I also write about our zero waste journey in a bid to encourage others to think about the impact they have on the environment.

I’m a keen runner and in April 2019 I ran the London Marathon for an amazing charity called WellChild. It’s one of my biggest achievements to date. I raised over £2,000 for the charity and learnt so much along the way.

This year we’re passionate about spending time outdoors. We’ll be sharing our travel, days out and camping adventures right here on Twin Mummy and Daddy.
