Travelling with the smallest of babies can result in the biggest of luggage headaches! By the time you've got the travel cot, baby bath, steriliser and massive from-birth buggy in the boot of your car, there's hardly room for your clothes.
There are many great gadgets for family travel, but we especially love the 'travel' baby bath from Summer Infant.
The Summer Infant Folding Bath Tub
Folding up and down rather like a little suitcase, it can be quickly opened out to take the weight and strain of a tubful of water plus your child, when it's fully operational. It has an easy-release draining plug, so you also don't have to lift it up when it's heavy and full of water in order to empty it.
Unlike some baby baths which, due to their size, only last up to a few months, this folding tub fits new babies and toddlers up to two years. This is because it can be set to a gentle incline for newborns and then adjusted into a spacious tub for older infants. This not only makes it an appealing option when you travel, but also as a space-saving nursery item at home.
Made of strong plastic and with a durable vinyl liner, it will certainly last you into your child's third year, and is built to be strong when thrown in with the other luggage on your trips away.
The folding tub has an RRP of £19.99 and is available at high street stores including Mothercare and John Lewis. It is also available through Jojo Maman Bebe.
