Beat the January Blues: Plan Your 2025 Adventures
With the January blues settling in, it’s the perfect time to start dreaming and planning your 2025 adventures! We know traveling with tots can be chaotic, which is why I’m sharing my top five tips to keep things calm, organised, and stress-free:
- Pack Smart, Not Big: Bring versatile items like the Trek Tots™ Play Mat—it’s lightweight, portable, and perfect for on-the-go play or rest.
- Snacks, Snacks, Snacks: Keep a stash of baby or toddler-friendly snacks in resealable bags for quick clean-ups.
- Create a Comfort Zone: Carry a familiar toy or blanket to make new environments feel like home.
- Plan Play Stops: Whether it’s a park, a café with a play area, or a rest stop, factor in breaks for your tot to stretch and explore.
- Be Flexible: Plans don’t always go as expected, so leave room for spontaneity and detours.

Parenting Hack Spotlight: On-the-Go Baby Monitor
Nothing says ‘nap trapped’ like having a newborn and being unable to leave the room, terrified they’ll wake the moment you step away for a quick loo break. That’s why I’m sharing my favourite on-the-go baby monitor hack! It gives you peace of mind when baby’s napping and lets you take that much-deserved toilet break in silence.
Trek Tots Toast: Little Scandi Baby
As a fellow small business owner, I love discovering other brands with amazing products that make parenting simpler and more enjoyable. If they’re sustainable, that’s even better!
One standout is Little Scandi Baby, a Scandinavian Danish baby essentials and clothing brand focused on design, lifestyle, playfulness, and quality. They use organic and Oeko-Tex fabrics to ensure the best for our tots.
My personal favourite? Their Cherries Waterproof Bib! Both my son and daughter were serial teethers for the first 2.5 years of their lives, and we went through more bibs than I can count. I love that these bibs are waterproof, keeping clothes dry—goodbye soggy tees!
