Packing a Suitcase
January 25th, 2008
My daughter and grandchild flew in yesterday because I was having withdrawals from not seeing him for 2 months.
I am always looking for ways to organize better and more efficiently because I am a professional organizer and I was very impressed with the way she packed for her short trip.
She packed a suitcase for each of them:
• Inside each she used the jumbo (not super size) zip lock bags.
• In one was diapers
• In another, outfits paired together
• Socks in another
• Toys were together with a list of what she brought so none will be lost.
• Everything she packed was nice and neat and organized
In her suitcase she did the same:
• Pants in one
• Blouses in another
• Socks together in another bag
• Underwear all together
Talk about easy street. It is so nice to find what to dress him in each day and it saves time looking for what we need for him and she saves time for herself. When traveling with children it can be stressful and this is just one way of reducing stress and having more time and fun when on vacation or away from home.

Nice article. Taking the time to initially do this equals no room for chaos, frustration, anger, leaves room for pure enjoyment of the visit. TOUCHE’
