Pick a card. Any card. Each has a kid-friendly day all mapped out for you.

I featured laundry paper before. Now Travelon’s come out with shampoo, conditioner, body wash and shave cream, all in biodegradable sheet form. Sheets, sheets and more sheets to help you and your toiletries handily slide through airline security.

The universal adapter rocked my world. Now, with surge protection? I’m positively giddy. A sound investment for frequent world travelers.

Hooray for SmartWool, which manages to supply warmth without itch. They make winter sport-specific socks, but I do believe these over-the-knee babies could be sorta foxy in front of the post-boarding/snowshoeing/skiing fire. Is thinking thermal socks “sexy” too ridiculously Minnesotan of me?

A little water makes this itsy-bitsy tablet grow into a good-sized biodegradable tissue, sans anti-bacterial anything. Great for camping, on-the-road parenting and traveling through toilet-paperless countries.

Recapture the days of carving hearts and initials into grade-school desktops or wet cement. This postcard comes clean and ready to deface, romantically, then send across town or around the world.

For your bike, yes, but also to tether your pack to the top of the bus in India, or maybe to your train compartment luggage rack in Italy. Secure and super scary.

It’s totally a matter of preference, rolling with two wheels or with four, as on this soft-sided Samsonite. All four wheels are supposed to maintain contact with the floor as you roll the bag directly beside you, not behind you. Really a more natural way to carry such a heavy load, when you think about it.

When it comes to showing off your vacation photos, better to leave ‘em wanting more (rather than wishing there’d been fewer). Edit your shots down to the key sixteen that fit into this fab carry-along clutch.

Can you believe they still make this stuff? If you incorporate sipping umbrella drinks while rocking some ’80s-style sunblock into your next beachy trip, you are my new best friend.
