Millie Mackintosh shares affordable travel essentials for kids

Millie Mackintosh, the chic former Made in Chelsea personality, took to Instagram recently to share her amazing Amazon finds that make travelling with kids a breeze. In her latest Instagram update, Millie walks us through a range of travel “hacks” she swears by to ensure family getaways go off without a hitch.

She’s got every parent covered with cool items like digital drawing pads and compact portable fans all designed to keep the kiddos entertained and comfortable, even on those pesky long-haul flights or warm cabin conditions. With prices from just £12 to £25, Millie’s selected travel must-haves are as budget-friendly as they are savvy, ideal for families watching their spending or those with multiple little ones like herself.

Understanding that travelling can quickly turn hangry toddlers into tiny terrors, Millie has also shared her snack-packing wisdom by ditching unreliable plastic bags for a sturdy plastic storage box. She recommends snagging an Opret 2 Piece 36 Grid Plastic Organiser, priced at £13.99 here, for the task. If you’re looking for something more wallet-friendly, she suggests the smaller i-doodle 24 Compartment Large Clear Storage Box, which is £4.99 here from Wilko.

The Amazon container, however, is divided into 36 compartments, which Milly uses to store items like dried fruit, raisins, nuts and cheese. It’s perfect for keeping things separate and neatly organised, reports the Mirror. Despite some followers expressing concerns about the snacks scattering everywhere, it’s a brilliant solution for car journeys or long flights where you want your kids’ food within reach.

Nothing can make your kids (or you!) irritable quicker than feeling overheated and uncomfortable, something that’s especially challenging on a flight. Luckily, Milly’s Winique Stroller Fan, available for £19.99 here, serves as the ideal solution for staying cool on the move.

It’s battery-operated, so there’s no need to worry about finding a charger, and it has adjustable bendy legs that can be attached anywhere from stroller handles to your plane’s tray table to keep your family cool in hot weather.

Every parent knows that keeping your children entertained on long journeys is crucial for maintaining peace, and Milly had several tricks up her sleeve for this too. This includes the LCD Drawing Tablet, available for £11.99 here, which provides a mess-free way for them to express their creativity. The tablet allows your child to draw and doodle as much as they want, then simply wipes clean with the press of a button – perfect for avoiding bags full of paper or risking pen marks.

Milly also revealed that her two little girls are big fans of their iPads, making her choice of the Honor Pad X9 Case, priced at £14.99 here, a smart purchase. It comes with shock-absorbing bumpers and a handle and stand for easy viewing or playing on the go.

In addition, Milly shared that her daughter Sienna has a fear of the dark, which can be more challenging to manage when travelling. To help soothe her, Milly opted for the portable Balami Kids Night Light, available for £24.99 here. This fully rechargeable lamp can be placed anywhere and features various brightness settings and a starry projector in the top, ticking all the boxes for travel needs.

Thanks for the travel tips, Milly!
