From the article: What Should I Pack in the Diaper Bag?
Trying to remember all the things to pack in the diaper bag before you head out the door ranks right up there with, "Did I turn the stove off?" and "Did I lock all the doors?" And once you manage to get out of the house, it still seems like you've forgotten something. I always felt like I was carting around so much when my son was a baby, but I was surprised to find that once he reached toddlerhood, his diaper bag easily weighed twice as much. What are some of the essentials that you pack in your toddler's diaper bag? Share bag-packing tips or tell us what's in your bag now that your child has become a toddler. What's in the Bag?
What's in the bag
- I try to keep it simple. Diapers, wipes, wet ones (hand wipes), and 2 6oz. bottles filled w/ water. I keep the can of formula in the car. Also a snack ball filled w/ yogurt melts, 2 little toys, sunblock, an outfit change, and my wristlet w/ cash, credit cards, and cell. I don't want to lug around 2 bags. That's pretty much it.

diaper bag
- I always keep (besides just diapers and wipes) extra clothes, toys, snacks, and bum cream of course. Sunscreen in the summer time, hats as well, wash cloths, shoes, etc. All for just one child who is 2 years old!!!
