Toddler holiday essentials?

We’re going abroad next month for the first time since having our little boy who will be 18 months. I’ve got main stuff covered - travel pram, sun cream, swimwear, swim nappies, hats etc. Hotel are providing a travel cot and we don’t need a car seat so that’s fine. Probably massively overthinking it but feel like I’m forgetting something? Would love to know what others have found essential/useful/wish they’d taken.

@Alyssa Good shout! I usually keep a bottle in the changing bag but sachets are a very good idea 👍🏼 x

@Beth Ahh yeah, already got a pram fan from last year and will be buying a snooze shade too. Don’t use white noise so that’s fine but will definitely get some new toys for the plane 👍🏼 x

I take Calpol sachets so I know we have it just in case and we can’t get to a pharmacy immediately
