Surviving Holiday Travel With Lots of Little Ones
December 18, 2021 8:00 am | by

When the number of kids is greater than the number of hands, the holiday season isn’t quite as magical, 24/7. What do you do when there are five kids, two hands, and ten packages to get into the post slot? How do you shop for Christmas presents when you have three of the kids in the buggy? As a mother of five children, 8 years and under at one point, I am going to share my survival tactics and hope that it will make your holiday season just a little bit merrier. Do Not Expect Picture Perfect Whoops, did I

Flip: the Ultimate Travel Diaper

Flip cloth diaper cover: The Ultimate Travel Diaper

As I was preparing for my first airplane trip with my 2 littles, I consulted many of the moms and dads in the office for their best travel tips. Bekah, our product designer, offered one of the best stories I can’t believe I’ve never heard: the story of how Flip diapers came to be. I was lamenting that I planned to use disposables for a weeklong trip to Hawaii. For past vacations, we drove and had access to laundry. Since we are literally going to paradise, I am not going to spend time worrying about laundry. But, this is our

Traveling with Cloth Diapers

Tips for traveling with cloth diapers

I’ve found that the longer I use cloth diapers, the more resistant I am to buying disposable diapers. Several weeks ago, my family had some traveling to do. First, we spent Labor Day weekend at my sister-in-law’s lake house. Then, we drove from the Midwest to Destin, Florida. I thought this would be a great time to use Flip disposable inserts full-time. Traveling with little ones can be daunting, but making plans in advance helped to keep things running smoothly. As much as I love my baby’s cloth diapers, I wanted to enjoy a carefree vacation and that didn’t involve

Secrets to successfully traveling with cloth diapers.

As families make plans for spring break and summer travel, we receive a lot of posts in our Facebook group, the Mob, about how to successfully use cloth diapers while traveling. Cloth Diapers While Traveling There are several factors that can make it easier or more difficult. Will you have access to do laundry? If so, carry on as normal! Try measuring out how much laundry detergent you will need ahead of time, or buy it at your destination. If you don’t have access to laundry facilities, how long will you be gone? You don’t want to go too long

What to Pack When Traveling with a Toddler
November 9, 2017 1:05 pm | by
Traveling with a toddler

My family and I recently went on a trip across the country from St. Louis to California. This was our first big trip with our little girl, who is now 2 and a half years old. We were headed to Disneyland for a couple of days, then down to San Diego for some family time at the beach. To say I was nervous about the trip would be an understatement. I had lists for my lists a month ahead of time because I was so worried I would forget something. I’ve compiled one last list for you of my must-have

When you get married and have children you begin to make choices based your family’s priorities and goals. Family finances play a role in making our goals a reality. For us, providing experiences and life-memories for our children has always been one of our top priorities. And cloth diapering has been one tool we use to help make that happen.
