The summer has arrived and the time for your vacation is approaching. Surely, vacation with a baby seems very difficult. However, there is nothing else that is needed but a good organizing, in order to enjoy the vacation. Something very basic is to make a “smart list” (see useful advice).

   Firstly, you must have a separate suitcase for the baby things.

Clothing

- diaper briefs-vests of cotton material (how many depends on how long you stay).

- shorts-body suits- leggings-dresses-trousers-blouses, all made of cool cotton material.

- track suit, jersey, light jacket

- covering drapes

-shoes, slippers, light and comfortable

-a few pairs of shocks

-caps, ribbons, hair clips

-a charm, an eyelet

Toys

Balls, cars, dolls, little buckets, fairy tale books

Bath and skin care products

-scissors, comb

In a beach bag

Swimming suit, towels, blouses, panties, diapers, wet tissues, antiseptic tissues, cap, dummy, bottle of water, cream for mosquito bites, sun spray, sea baby shoes, a big beach mat, a beach umbrella, life belt, toy bucket and shovel.

A small plastic swimming pool would be a very helpful thing, to fill it with a little water or sand for the baby to play in it, so you can be more relaxed.
