"Welcome back my name is Alisha and I’m with Expert Village and today we are talking about how to travel with a toddler. Alright another great thing to carry with you in the car, trash bags very important for you to pick up trash and smelly diapers. I usually keep a few of these in my center console, diapers bag what have you. Another thing I like to really take with me on trips is dryer sheets. Dryer sheets are great to air freshen the car especially after a diaper change, or you can actually put them inside the bag with the poppy diaper, tie it off and you will never smell this diaper, just throw it away at your next rest stop. Another great tip that I have for you helps with a toddler, is using your rear view mirror to look at them, all you need to do is look at it and if you flip down for your night time scene, actually see your toddler in the rear view mirror for ya, You see what they are doing and they actually a lot of times like it they will make faces back at you or ask you what you're doing."
