Around the Home Giveaways

brooklin jumping for joy beach oshkosh outfitWe are thrilled about spring break, and with three girls I know it’s time to update their spring wardrobes and get them ready for all the fun of a spring break family vacation. This post is sponsored by OshKosh B’Gosh; however, all thoughts and opinions expressed are my own. ohh kiosk spring breakLast week as we started packing for our spring break trip to San Diego so I took our girls shopping at OshKosh B’Gosh. They had such a great time picking out all the things we needed for our trip.

Check out our video from our shopping trip and a little fun.

ohh kiosk b'gosh spring 2016 outfitWhat I like about OshKosh B’Gosh is that each of our girls can find things they like that fit their own style. I allowed them to pick out of their own clothes for our spring break trip. Especially with girls this ensures they will actually wear the items that are packed for them. Also having pieces like denim tops and shorts that can be mixed and matched is helpful so you don’t over pack.summer sandalsOne of my best tips for packing with small children is to only pack items they’re going to use on the trip. One pair of sandals can be used for multiple outfits, also using one bag for all three of my children’s clothes saves on packing multiple bags.ohh gosh spring 2016 outfitsEven if we are headed to a beach destination I always pack an outfit that involves pants. A light top is also a favorite of our girls, so I wasn’t surprised when Brooklin picked this embroiled top from OshKosh. She also picked fun bracelets to accessorize with and brightly colored pants. We just happened to stop for a family picture after checking out the tide pools. our family spring 2016Even though it was a warm day the pants allowed Brooklin to move and climb. We had such a great time watching for whales and exploring the tide pools. For us this is what spring break is all about, enjoying our time together close to the water.   2We really enjoyed San Diego and just played at a local park downtown and had such a fun time. That’s the best part of family vacations is making memories together. That’s what we always look forward to most during our trips. We just happen to always find fun things to do, that’s why we like just getting out to explore California. 6It’s safe to say our girls had a fun day playing. It’s nice to have clothes that not only look great and hold up well but are comfortable enough to allow you to play. It’s all about staying comfortable and stylish and I really liked each of the outfits our girls picked from OshKosh. mia oshkosh outfitThe best part of every trip is just spending time together. So I don’t stress too much about packing or planning, make time on your vacation to just explore. It’s in those moments your family has the most fun!dad on side with kidsYou can find these and other great styles and everything you need for spring break at OshKosh B’Gosh.

    No tips as I am a single girl packing solely for myself. I literally only travel with one carry on and never check luggage!

  2. Laurie Emerson says

    03/25/2016 at 7:59 pm

  4. Carolyn Daley says

    03/25/2016 at 4:16 pm

    My tip includes bringing a power strip or multi plug outlet. Some hotels do not have enough outlets for everyone to charge their phones and/or tablets.

  5. jules m. says

    03/25/2016 at 11:33 am

    those packing cubes are really helpful! i dont travel much but i always keep samples of things i receive in the mail (shampoo, toothpaste) for my carry on liquids bag. they are always under the limit so i dont have to worry.

    We do not go on spring back vacation. I just take my kids to different activities around the town. When Packing for vacations I like to pack just what I need and not more. But with children its hard to do that

  27. Kristine says

    03/19/2016 at 7:18 am

    I always pack clothes that can be worn interchangeably. Oshkosh is the perfect place to get outfits like this since their clothing lines offered all “match” a specific color/theme. Love Oshkosh for all our kids!

  28. Andrea v says

    03/19/2016 at 6:19 am

    Make a list of items and start packing early. I also roll the clothes to take up less room.

  32. Kristin Goodson says

    03/18/2016 at 6:00 am

    Always bring more clothes than you need. Sometimes weather in the spring is unpredictable. I always have a trashbag in the car so there isn’t trash all over my car. I roll my clothes to save room and I try to bring wrinkle spray so my clothes don’t get wrinkled.

  33. Bonnie @wemake7 says

    03/18/2016 at 5:27 am

    My tip is to have a checklist made by writing things down as you do them the days before you pack! Folding and rolling clothing is also a huge space saver!

  36. Amanda A says

    03/17/2016 at 4:48 pm

    These tips are great. We are leaving for the river for a few days during Spring break. I think I am packing everything but the kitchen sink. I pretty much pack a separete bag for everyone and like to organize outfits with unies and socks in zip lock bags that I reuse each trip.

  37. latanya says

    03/17/2016 at 4:15 pm

  38. Up Run For Life says

    03/17/2016 at 1:57 pm

    My boys went to New Mexico for a few days. I ended up making sure my son had enough clothes. With temperatures still in the lower 40s, I made sure he had warm pants. Even though he rather wear shorts. I also made sure he had extra clothes in case of an accident.

  39. Ann Bacciaglia says

    03/17/2016 at 10:18 am
