Summer is officially here so let the traveling begin! Traveling with little ones can be exciting as you get to see everything through their eyes. It is so much fun to see their expression when they see how big a giraffe is or how fun it can be to pick your own strawberries. What is not fun is the long rides in the cars.
Long rides are not much fun for anyone. Often parents decide to leave late at night so kids will sleep through the ride. Yet, by the time they get to their destination the kids are still grumpy and uncomfortable. Sleeping in the car is not restful. As I drive I see my little one’s head flopping in the backseat and I wonder how she can stay asleep. She always seems so miserable when she wakes up if she sleeps too long. I know I would feel the same if I slept like that in the car. One solution that my two little ones love is Cheeky Charlie.
Cheeky Charlie is a traveling neck rest for kids. It is adorable and just the right size for little necks. Aurora always has the cutest collections and this one is no different. This collection is called “Are We There Yet?” The comfy neck rest is only 13 dollars and worth every penny. You can get the neck rest in other jungle animals as well. Just pick your child’s favorite animal and get ready for her to travel in comfort to arrive at the destination happy and alert.
My little ones bring along their comfy neck rests for even short drives because they love them so much. While I am sure that novelty will wear off, I am also sure that the comfort will not for long drives. Just one more thing to make traveling a bit easier this summer.
