Though I'm out of the baby stage of parenting, I'm still a mom with the
best baby bags on the brain - partly because my kid is still in diapers, and partly because even though we don't need the full-on diaper bag for running errands or trips to the library, we still need some specialized toddler gear for dinners out or full afternoons away - which happens a lot during the holiday season, of course.
So for all of our Christmas events this month - and especially this week - here's what we're carting around.
Our holiday event essentials for toddler include: entertainment in the form of
coloring/sticker play packs from the Target dollar spot (these things are amazing and worth way more than $1 in entertainment value!),
sippy cup (he's just not trustworthy enough with a regular one, especially when someone else's carpet is at stake!),
diaper clutch (don't need the whole kit and kaboodle anymore, but don't risk leaving the house without one),
wet wipes (for sticky hands and faces thanks to many holiday treats), extra mittens (because we are always misplacing them).
I think a leather backpack like this is perfect for
mom style, and complements many of
my favorite holiday outfits right now too.
