Essential Travel Items to Snag on Amazon Prime Day

CAR SEATS:

If you’re traveling with kids, a lightweight, safe, and easy-to-install car seat or booster seat is a must. Prime Day usually has solid deals on a few of the popular options. Look for ones that are portable and light weight so you’re not dragging a bulky seat through the airport. A high quality travel stroller truly makes navigating security lines, cobblestone streets, or amusement parks so much easier - and Prime Day deals can save you a lot of $$.

• Safety 1st Crosstown Slim Convertible Car Seat (50% off Prime Day) - Solid pick for a travel car seat. It’s lightweight and just 17" wide, so it fits easily in any rental car or taxi. Practical option for families on the go that will grow with you... Can’t beat the sale too!

• Hiccapop UberBoost Inflatable Booster Car Seat (22% off Prime Day) - This inflatable booster seat has been such a gamechanger for us this year - incredibly compact, weighs next to nothing, and rolls up tightly in its own travel bag when deflated to easily fit in a large purse or backpack. It inflates by mouth in just 20 seconds and deflates just as quickly when we’re done. Check out this  Instagram reel I made about it with almost 1 million views.

• Evenflo Tribute Convertible Car Seat (20% off Prime Day) - Lightweight, compact, and FAA-approved, making it a great budget-friendly option for flying with kids or tossing in a rental car without the bulk of a full-size seat.

• Diono Solana No Latch Backless Booster (20% off Prime Day) - a sturdy and classic booster seat that’s easy to travel with

• BubbleBum Inflatable Booster Car Seat Another great inflatable booster seat. It’s foldable, lightweight and so compact which is so key to travelling light.

STROLLERS:

A good, high quality travel stroller is worth every penny. The best ones fold with one hand, fit in an overhead bin, and make it easy to get through airports, trains, and city streets. There are some fantastic Prime Day sales on some of the most popular models this year.

• Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 All-Terrain Double Stroller  (37% off Prime Day) If you’re looking for a double travel stroller, this is an excellent option at a fantastic price! 

• Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 All-Terrain Stroller (45% off Prime Day) -One of the best deals this year! It just hit the lowest price of the year (20% below the previous YTD low). It folds up small with one hand, has an adjustable handlebar, and comes with a car seat adapter, making it an easy, travel-friendly choice for families who want quality without the bulk.

• Ergobaby Metro+ Travel Stroller (25% off Prime Day) - I’ve heard good things about this one!

• Mompush Velo Travel Stroller(30% off Prime Day) I love a one hand fold compact traveller stroller because lets be honest - we usually only have one hand (if that) free.

• Frida Baby Hands-Free Stroller Rocker Device (30% off Prime Day) I saw my friend recently with her baby and thought it was brilliant! It’s a little device that basically shakes and rocks your stroller for you. 

Traveling with kids means stuff. Packing cubes, compression bags, and the right backpacks keep things organized and stop you from losing your mind digging through suitcases. Prime Day is the best time to stock up on these little lifesavers. And don’t forget that I also designed my own Mini Jetsetter Travel Activity Bags with detachable pouches and extra pockets, specifically for staying organized on the go.

• Samsonite Omni Hardside Luggage (2 piece set) (50% off Prime Day)  Half price hardside luggage - yes please!

• Bentgo Bento Snack Box (37% off Prime Day) 5-Compartment Leak-Proof Lunch Box - if you’ve been following me you know how important it is to always have snacks and healthy ones on the go. I love this snack box for that.

• Rolling Backpack- Perfect for travel. They’re small enough for little ones to wheel around on their own, which gives them independence (and saves us from carrying their stuff), but light enough to carry as a backpack when needed. The passthrough sleeve makes it easy to stack on top of our suitcase too.

Flying can be exhausting, but having the right in-flight essentials makes all the difference. From supportive neck pillows and cozy blankets to eye masks and foot rests, these travel must-haves help everyone stay more comfortable and well-rested on those long flights.

• Inflatable Foot Rest  (30% off Prime Day) One of my favourite hacks for long flights. These create a flat surface between the seats so little legs can stretch out, lie down, or just get cozy. It folds down super small and inflates quickly. 

• Twelve South AirFly Pro (20% off Prime Day) This gadget transforms any headphone jack into a Bluetooth wireless transmitter or receiver adapter. So that means you can stream audio from airplane screens to your wireless headphones. Or you can also receive and play music from your phone through your car AUX port - no wires.

• Portable Charger (32% off Prime Day) I always have a portable charger when travelling because you never know when your device may die. This power bank has four built in cables to work with all your devices.

We’re a little obsessed with magnetic toys over here. I think they’re the BEST type of travel toy - they’re compact, mess-free, and don’t end up rolling under airplane seats every two seconds. Plus, if you happen to be at a restaurant with metal chairs or tables, your kids suddenly have an entire new way to play. I also designed my own Mini Jetsetter Travel Magnetic Travel Kit.

• Magna-tiles Mirco Mags (30% off Prime Day) - We love these mini magna-tiles - a great size for travel!

Hands down in our top 5 travel toys!

Packing the right travel toys make all the difference. Between trains, planes, rental cars, and countless hotel rooms, I learned quickly which toys actually earned their space in our  carry-on bags. These weren’t just “keep them busy for five minutes” toys, but the ones that worked over and over again. There are some amazing deals so you can stock up and make travel fun, engaging, and stress-free for your little ones!
