10 BearHug
The BearHug is a great travel item for kids. This 3-in-1 wrap is big enough for anyone, furry enough for even the most sensitive among us, and washable, which is always great news for parents! The BearHug wraps all around (unlike 'the other blanket'), like a Hug and even stays on when you walk! It is something to connect with, snuggle with and take along, feeling like part of home is coming too. My favorite part of this unigue travel product is that it easily folds into itself and emerges as an easy-to-tote 'n stuff backpack, doubling as fluffy pillow. Who needs those airline blankets, when you can wrap up in a Hug?!

Keep the entire family safe and up to date with the 911 Medical ID Card is a unique and life-saving new health information storage card all travelers should carry with them.

It's the world's thinnest patent-protected USB device, and easily slips into the credit card section of your wallet. When you plug it in, the card walks you through entering important information such as prescriptions, allergies, and pre-existing conditions. If the worst happens, medical professionals will be prompted by a sticker on your driver's license to find this card and plug it in. When traveling with a new partner and new kids it is the best way to have you completely ready for everything!
