Summer Travel With DrKids: A Parent’s Guide to Happy, Healthy Adventures with Their Little Ones

Traveling with young children is an adventure of its own — equal parts joy, chaos, and memorable moments. Whether you're heading to grandma’s, the beach, or exploring a new city, keeping your child comfortable, healthy, and happy on the go is key to a successful summer getaway.

At DrKids, we know that parents need trusted tools to handle whatever the journey brings — from tummy troubles to temperature spikes. Here’s your go-to guide for smooth summer travels with your kids — plus the must-have products to pack beforehand! 

1. Create a Wellness Travel Kit

Before you even zip the suitcase, prep your “peace of mind” pouch with these family travel essentials:

• Wet wipes & hand sanitizer
• Water bottles & electrolytes
• A comfort item (stuffed animal, blanket)
• DrKids Children’s Pain + Fever Single-Use Vials, on vacation, there's no time to fumble with syringes or guess dosages. These pre-measured vials of acetaminophen are mess-free, TSA-friendly, and perfect for unexpected fevers, sore throats, or headaches on the go. 

2. Support Their Tummy & Immune System

Travel often means new foods, changed routines, and disrupted sleep — a recipe for upset tummies or reduced immunity. Keep their digestive and immune systems supported with simple, daily habits like a good probiotic. It is advised to start probiotics before travel for best results! Our DrKids Probiotic + Vitamin D Drops are pediatrician-recommended drops that contain clinically proven strains to support gut health and 400 IU of Vitamin D3 for powerful immune support. Ideal for young children, they help maintain wellness before, during, and after travel. 

New foods and long journeys can also cause bloating, gas, or stomach aches — especially in young kids who can’t always describe what they’re feeling. DrKids Tummy Calm is formulated with natural ingredients like activated charcoal, chamomile, and ginger to help relieve gas and stomach discomfort, it’s perfect for calming cranky tummies on the go.

3. Keep Daily Nutrition On Track

When your usual meal routines are thrown off, it’s easy for kids to miss essential nutrients. That’s where a daily multivitamin can help. DrKids Immune Support Multivitamin Gummy Bites
Are packed with 15 essential vitamins and minerals (like Zinc, Vitamin D, and Selenium), these delicious gummies are a kid-approved way to support immunity, energy, and healthy development — no matter where summer takes you. They’re also free from dyes, parabens, and alcohol, making them a safe and easy addition to your travel routine.

 4. Stay Flexible, Stay Calm

Sometimes, the best travel tip is simply to go with the flow. Plans may change, naps might be skipped, and there might be a meltdown or two — and that’s okay (in fact it’s normal!). With the right prep and a few trusted tools in your bag, you can navigate it all with more ease and less stress.

At DrKids, we believe that wellness and smart convenience can go hand in hand. That’s why our products are innovatively created to be travel-friendly, child-focused, and easy to use — on the road or at home.
