A Parent's Guide to Dining Out with Little Ones

by ToteSavvy Team on Nov 06, 2024
As a mom, I’ve learned that dining out with kids is a delicate balance between wanting to enjoy a meal and managing the unpredictable nature of little ones. Amidst the anxiety, there’s joy to be found—watching their faces light up when their food arrives or sharing giggles over silly conversations. It’s all part of the adventure, and I’ve realized that preparation acts as my superhero cape in motherhood. With a little prep and a sense of humor, I can focus on enjoying the moment rather than stressing about the “what ifs.” Ultimately, being prepared transforms dining out from a daunting challenge into a fun adventure, allowing me to savor those special family memories. Knowing I have activities and essential supplies on hand helps me prevent potential meltdowns before they start. It’s not just about having the essentials, but also packing them in a way that keeps everything organized and within easy reach. That’s where the ToteSavvy comes in—it’s been a game-changer for us. With its perfectly designed compartments, packing for a quick outing is a breeze, even when we’re rushing out the door. From snacks and wipes to our Babynetic magnetic bibs, everything has its place, so I can grab exactly what we need without digging through a chaotic bag. Check out our family tips and must-haves for dining out:  Parent pro tip: As soon as you sit down, order your kids’ food—or better yet, ask for the bread basket—before the waiter even gets to the "sparkling or still" water question! Keeping the little ones happy with something to nibble on makes all the difference. Activities: Pack a few activities to keep your little ones entertained while you wait for your food. Some of our favorites include Melissa and Doug’s Water Wow for mess-free coloring, Floss and Rock’s fun memory games, and the doodle board tablet for endless creative play! To keep things fresh and engaging, mix in some new or different items that they don’t usually play with. This adds an element of excitement and helps pass the time more pleasantly!  Familiar favorites: You can’t always rely on restaurants to provide kid-friendly cups or utensils, so it’s a great idea to bring some familiar items from home to boost your child’s confidence during mealtime. Pack their favorite water bottle, utensils, and a bib to keep things tidy.  Minimize the mess: Dining out with little ones doesn’t have to be messy! Our go-to solution for staying neat on the go is the Babynetic magnetic bib. The magnetic closure makes it so easy to snap on even the squirmiest toddler, and it’s nearly impossible for them to pull off—no more food flying disasters! Plus, it can easily be wiped clean and put back into your ToteSavvy, keeping everything organized. Another lifesaver? Disposable placemats! Skip the breakable plates and let your little one enjoy their meal directly on the placemat. It’s an easy setup and even easier cleanup when you’re ready to toss it out.   The Usual Suspects: Depending on your child's age, there are the usual items that go with you whenever you leave the house. Dining out is no different so pack up your wipes, diapers and a change of clothes to make sure you’re ready for any surprises that might arise during your meal. So, to all the moms out there: remember that being prepared is your trusty sidekick when it comes to dining out. With a little planning and a lot of positivity, you can tackle any restaurant adventure with confidence. Let’s make those family meals a time to cherish, one bite at a time!

Car Pouch Finds with ToteSavvy

by ToteSavvy Team on Sep 19, 2024
For all the traveling girlies out there, a car pouch is essential. We're sharing our favorite items we keep with us at all times for those just in case moments when you're on-the-go. Clear Pouch // We used our must-have Medium Clear Pouch to pack our car pouch. It's the perfect size to hold all of your essentials and once it's packed, you can pop it right into your trunk or glove box. Hand Sanitizer // Hand sanitizers are another must-have essential--especially if you have little ones. We love to keep a hand sanitizer spray, hand sanitizing wipes, and travel hand sanitizing wipes in our pouch. The travel hand sanitizing wipes are perfect to grab when you're at the park and know you'll need a sanitizing wipe while you're out! Beauty Essentials // As we get closer to the winter months and the dry air starts creeping in, hand lotion and lip balms are life-saving. You can also never have too many hair scrunchies or a hair clip to toss your hair up or switch up your hair style in a pinch. Health Care // You never know when a headache or heartburn will strike. Keep a pill container stocked with your medicines and supplements. Floss is also a great thing to add in for after your lunch break. Also, make sure you toss a few tampons in...you know it's the worst feeling when you're out and run out or need one unexpectedly. First Aid // If you have little ones you know a mini first aid kit is needed the most random, inconvenient times, so be sure to stock up your car for those moments. Misc. Essentials // A few other essentials that are super helpful to have include an umbrella, stain remover wipes, and a hair brush. Shop the Post // Clear Pouch - Medium | Hand Cream | Lip Balm | Hand Sanitizer Spray | Hand Sanitizing Wipes |  Hand Sanitizing Travel Wipes | Travel Floss | Pill Container | Tampons | Hair Brush | First Aid Kit | Stain Remover Wipes | Umbrella | Hair Clip | Hair Scrunchies Travel savvy, friends.

Diaper Bag Essentials with ToteSavvy

by ToteSavvy Team on May 20, 2024
We've been sharing our diaper bag essentials a lot on Instagram, so we wanted to share all of our favorite essentials here on the blog, too! Over the past few years, we have been obsessed with using the Marc Jacobs Tote as a diaper bag. It's so easy to clean, and it perfectly fits both the ToteSavvy Original and the ToteSavvy Deluxe. It's our most popular and most requested bag and organizer combo. Recently, we've been using the ToteSavvy Deluxe in Toffee. It's a gorgeous, neutral brown, and looks amazing in canvas totes. Organized in our ToteSavvy Deluxe, of course you need diapers and wipes. We love Abby & Finn, and we sell them here on our site! We love putting the wipes in a refillable wipes container. It's so easy to grab out of your bag while out and about, and it keeps wipes moist and fresh! Another diaper changing essential is the Ella Ola Diaper Rash Cream. You never know when a diaper rash is going to appear on your sweet babe, so it's best to be prepared. Have you ever been out and your little one has an accident or inevitably spits up all over an outfit, but then you have no where to put that outfit?! Wet bags are life-changing! Keep a wet bag rolled up, and you have it when you need it so that way you can keep any wet or soiled outfits away from other essentials. When you get home, toss in the clothes, burp cloths, and wet bag in the wash, and it's ready for your next adventure. Be sure to toss in an extra outfit, too! Burp cloths are another must-have. Muslin burp cloths are so absorbent and there are so many pretty, coordinating colors to choose from. We love this neutral paci case and it's easy to keep clean with a simple wipe. The last essential for baby is a bottle, and you can keep it cool in the zippered cooler pocket! Add an ice pack to keep it at temperature a little longer. A few essentials for you--we love, love hand sanitizer spray and hand sanitizing wipes. A hair tie is always a good idea when you're out with your little ones, and lotion, and gum are must-haves for us. You can shop all of our essentials below: ToteSavvy Deluxe | Marc Jacobs Tote | Abby & Finn Diapers and Wipes | Ella Ola Diaper Rash Cream | Wipes Holder | Muslin Burp Cloths | Wet Bag | Pacis | Paci Case | Bottles | Hair Tie | Hand Sanitizer Spray | Hand Sanitizing Wipes | Hand Lotion | Simply Gum

Amazon Baby Finds || Diaper Bag Essentials

by ToteSavvy Team on Jan 23, 2024
Having a baby is an exciting (and slightly terrifying) adventure. From the moment you find out you're expecting, your mind starts racing with all the things you'll need to buy. And let's be honest, there's a lot of stuff out there to search through! We've tested and found some of the best diaper bag baby finds on Amazon to save the day, your budget, (and your sanity) so you can enjoy more in motherhood. The Diaper Bag Backpack: Because Who Needs Extra Baggage? Let's face it, parenting is like a never-ending game of "how much stuff can I carry?" That's where the diaper bag backpack comes in. With its spacious compartments, extra zippered pockets, and comfortable straps, it's the perfect hands-free solution for all your baby's needs. Plus, it's stylish enough to make you feel like a cool parent (even when you're covered in spit-up). The Diaper Bag Organizer: Because Chaos is Overrated Let's be real, finding that one pacifier or extra pair of socks in the bottomless pit of your diaper bag can be a real challenge. That's where the ToteSavvy Mini Bag Organizer comes in. With its handy compartments and pockets, it keeps everything in its rightful place. No more digging through mountains of diapers and wipes just to find that elusive teething toy! The Mini also features a cooler pocket perfect to keep a bottle while you're on-the-go, a key clasp so you never have to dig for your keys one handed, and a changing mat for those unavoidable backseat and Target bathroom diaper changes.  The Diaper Bag Essentials: Our Favorites To Make Mom-Life Easier Burp Cloths: The Unsung Heroes of Spit-Up Spit happens. And when it does, you'll be glad you have a stash of these muslin burp cloths on hand. These soft, absorbent wonders are like mini capes for your shoulder, ready to swoop in and save your clothes from the dreaded baby spit-up. Pacifiers: The Secret Weapon Against Meltdowns When your little one is on the verge of a meltdown, a pacifier can be your secret weapon. Just make sure you have a few extras on hand, because pacifiers have a way of disappearing into thin air (or under the couch). We love to store them in a Paci Case so there's always an extra (or two!) on hand! Sound Machine: The Sleep Superhero Every parent knows that a good night's sleep is worth its weight in gold. That's where a sound machine comes in. With soothing sounds like white noise, ocean waves or gentle lullabies, this gadget can help your little one drift off to dreamland. And the best part? It's portable, so you can take it on the go and ensure sweet dreams wherever you are! Attach it to the stroller, your baby carrier, or even the car seat for on-the-go naps. Wipes Container: The Quick Change Champion Diaper changes can be a messy business, but with a wipes container in your diaper bag, you'll be ready for anything. It keeps your wipes fresh and easily accessible, so you can tackle even the messiest of diaper disasters with ease. The best part: The wipes don't get stuck--seasoned parents, you know what we mean. No more endless strands of wipes causing chaos during diaper changes. Wet Bags: The Superhero Sidekick When it comes to dirty diapers or wet clothes, a wet bag is a must-have. These waterproof wonders keep the mess contained, so you can toss them in your diaper bag without fear of leaks or odors. Plus, they're great for storing wet swimsuits or messy bibs, making them the ultimate multitaskers in your parenting toolkit. Trash Bag Dispenser: Poop Bags--Baby Edition Okay, we've all seen these for pups, but they've been reimagined--baby edition. This trash bag dispenser is so convenient to have on hand for those messy diapers until you can get to a trash can. Medicine Container: The Health Hero When your little one or (yourself!) isn't feeling their best, a medicine container is there to save the day. In the larger sections, you can even store hair ties! Hand Sanitizer: The Germ Defender Hand sanitizer is essential in any handbag and a diaper bag, especially. Pin & Save For Later! Amazon's diaper bag baby finds are a game-changer for any parent on the go. With these stylish and practical options, you'll be prepared for anything that parenthood throws your way. So go ahead, embrace the chaos, and rock that diaper bag like the superhero parent you are and be sure to stay organized with ToteSavvy!

Everyday Bag Essentials with ToteSavvy & Day Designer

by ToteSavvy Team on Oct 05, 2023
When it comes to your everyday bag, there are a few essential items that you should always have on hand. Whether you're heading to work, running errands, or headed to the coffee shop, these items will ensure that you're prepared for anything that comes your way. ToteSavvy Deluxe Bag Organizer First things first, of course you need a ToteSavvy Bag Organizer for your everyday tote! We love using the Deluxe, because it offers a variety of pockets for your everyday essentials, a zippered cooler pocket for your lunch & snacks, and a plush-lined pocket for your laptop or tablet. Your most-loved and our most popular bag combo with the Deluxe is the Marc Jacobs Tote Bag--Large. The Day Designer Planner & Notepad Once you have a ToteSavvy Bag Organizer to help organize your bag, you definitely need a Day Designer Planner & Notebook to help organize your life. The Day Designer has so many different options to choose from (and the cutest of patterns, too!) so you can stay organized and keep on track during your week. Pens & Highlighters There's just something about using pretty pens and highlighters in your planner and for taking notes that makes the world a happier place! These pens & highlighters are an amazing quality, and they're an Amazon find, so they're super budget-friendly, too. Toss a few (or them all!) in your bag, and you're ready to crush your goals. Laptop & Chargers Whether you work on-the-go, the office, or you're headed to the coffee shop for a brainstorm session, be sure to grab your laptop and any chargers you may need. Don't forget your phone charger or your AirPods for those days you're especially productive and need an extra charge or a music mood boost! Pain Relievers & Hand Sanitizer  Headaches or muscle pains can strike at any time, causing discomfort and hindering your productivity. Keep your most used pain relievers and medicines in your bag for quick relief when needed. In addition to your meds, now that fall is ramping up, germs are lurking everywhere, and it's essential to prioritize hygiene. Carry a travel-sized hand sanitizer in your bag to keep your hands clean and germ-free. Lunch/Snacks When hunger strikes, having a stash of healthy snacks in your bag can save you from reaching for unhealthy options. Pack some nuts, granola bars, or fresh fruit to keep your energy levels up throughout the day. You can keep these in the ToteSavvy Deluxe's zippered cooler pocket to keep them fresh or chilled! Small Clear Pouch Makeup Bag For any makeup touch ups throughout the day, pack your beauty essentials in a ToteSavvy Clear Pouch. The Small will easily fit into the center of your ToteSavvy or in a free pocket. Remember, the contents of your everyday bag may vary depending on your personal needs and lifestyle. However, these essentials are a great starting point to ensure that you're prepared for whatever the day throws at you. Stay organized and have a stylish and productive day!

Preparing for the arrival of your little bundle of joy is an exciting time, but it can also be a bit overwhelming. One of the most important things to do before the big day is to pack your hospital bag. Trust us, you don't want to be scrambling around at the last minute trying to find things while you're in labor. So, let's dive into the main essentials you need to pack ahead of time! Comfy Clothes for Mom When it comes to clothing, comfort is key. Pack loose-fitting, breathable clothes that will make you feel at ease during your stay at the hospital. Don't forget to include a couple of nursing bras as well as cozy socks to keep your feet warm. Toiletries and Personal Care Items While the hospital will provide some basic toiletries, it's always nice to have your own. Pack travel-sized shampoo, conditioner, body wash, toothbrush, toothpaste, and any other personal care items you can't live without. Don't forget your favorite lip balm to keep your lips moisturized! Pack them in the Clear Pouch Trio Set for easy-access post delivery! In addition to your normal toiletries, be sure to pack a few postpartum essentials. There's something extra comforting about bringing your preferred items--the ones we have linked are our personal favorites for after delivery. Snacks and Drinks Labor can be a long process, and you'll need all the energy you can get. Pack some healthy snacks and drinks to keep you fueled throughout the journey. Granola bars, nuts, and dried fruit are great options. And don't forget a water bottle to stay hydrated! Baby Essentials Of course, you can't forget about your precious baby! Pack a few onesies, swaddle blankets, and a going-home outfit for your little one. Don't forget your car seat for the journey back home, too! Important Documents Don't leave home without your identification, insurance information, and any necessary hospital paperwork. It's always better to be safe than sorry, so keep these documents in a safe place within your hospital bag. We love the Clipfolio from Day Designer--it has a pocket for important documents and a notepad for anything you want to write down. Pin for Later! Shop the Post!
