ROAD TRAVEL WITH KIDS AN EXERCISE IN SMART PACKING

“When traveling by car, you don’t want to take a lot of stuff with you. On our recent road trip through California, Oregon, and Nevada, we made a conscious effort to pack the kids’ stain-proof clothes, knowing we would not have access to laundry facilities. Without them, we definitely would have had to change clothes several more times. They make great travel clothes.”

“While we were traveling, we were feeding Cade in his car seat and he was constantly spilling – so he was frequently sitting in dropped food,” Joni said. “But, all the stains on his Old Navy pants have come clean – either just by wiping or following a washing in the laundry. He wears the pants non-stop. Except for the few days that the two pairs are in the wash, he is never out of them.”

“Cade tends to eat with his hands and to then put his hands all over me, especially my pants. It was a great feeling knowing I didn’t have to worry about getting my own clothes ruined. Plus, at one point, after we were in the car for 13 hours, I came out looking fresh and wrinkle-free. I’m not an ironing person, so it was great to look like my pants had been ironed – when one hadn’t been near them!”

“The best thing about the Nano-Tex enhanced clothes is that I can be relaxed about the kids and their spills,” Joni said. “The psychological benefit is huge – I just don’t worry about it anymore.”
