If you are at that moment when you start planning the first outdoor outing with your baby, it is good to find out what are the essential elements that you must have with you whenever you go for a walk with your baby. In order to be prepared for any unforeseen situation and to fully enjoy the beautiful weather outside with your little one, you must make sure that you equip your bag properly. Each of us has at some point seen what the bag for children or babies looks like, which many parents carry on their shoulders or most of the time hanging on the cart, but do you know what it should contain? Read on which are the most important accessories for babies that you should always have with you, check the appropriate equipment of the bag every time you go for a walk and all you have to do is enjoy a beautiful day.
Diapers, essential for a well-equipped baby bag
First and foremost, it's good to make sure you have enough diapers with you. Take into account the age of the baby, the approximate duration of the walk and the distance from home. The basic rule is to have at least three spare diapers in your bag, or one diaper for each hour spent walking, plus a few spares. Periodically check the number of diapers you have in your bag.
Wet wipes, your help for perfect hygiene
Wet wipes are indispensable in the bag of a mother who is always prepared. You can take with you either a whole package of napkins, or you can put at least 10 wet napkins in a plastic bag, taking care that the little one does not have access to it. Wet wipes are ideal both for the baby's hygiene when you are away from home, but also for your own hygiene, when you don't have water sources at hand to wash yourself and for the hygiene of certain objects or surfaces with which you or the little one is possible to get in touch.
Put a hand disinfectant solution in your bag. Today, they are available at any store and are presented in the form of small bottles, ideal for traveling or walking. It would be best to use disinfectant solutions in the form of a gel, but pay attention to their alcohol content and how they interact with your skin. Long-term use of such solutions can cause an imbalance in the epidermis.
The mat on which you change the baby, the barrier against microbes
You can choose a beautifully colored blanket to take with you and use when you need to change the diaper. You can also opt for a soft towel to use for this purpose. You can use a second blanket to cover the baby in case the outside temperature drops, but also as protection against the wind, sun or simply to protect your clothes when feeding the little one.
Plastic or biodegradable bags
First of all, it is important to make sure that they are not accessible to the little one, because they can endanger his life by suffocation, even the small ones.
Feeding the little one for a walk
It is good to take at least one bottle with you and be prepared to feed the little one as often as necessary. You can take milk, water and even juice with you, depending on the age of the child. Also, it is always good to have a pacifier with you, regardless of whether you choose to use it or not.
The little one's favorite toys
Pack some spare clothes. You should always have a few spare clothes for the little one in your bag. Clothes can get dirty very easily and you must be able to change them if necessary. Don't forget to put the baby's favorite toys in the bag. Take with you one or two toys that you know the little one prefers. In case he gets bored with one of them or it gets dirty, you will always have another toy to keep him calm and happy. If your baby is at the age when teeth come out, it is good to put in the bag a toy specially designed for this purpose. The cream against irritations caused by diapers is equally important. Whether you need it or not, it's good to have such a cream in your bag.
Don't forget about yourself when you prepare the baby's bag
Although you might be tempted to forget about yourself when preparing the baby's bag, it is still advisable to put something in the bag for yourself as well - a bottle of water, silver or mineral according to your preferences, as well as some sandwiches or snacks to have at handy in case the walk is prolonged. Both for you and for the little one, it is good to have a sunscreen solution ready, which you can use when needed. Check their warranty period to make sure you are not using an expired cream.
