The key to car rides—no matter how far you’re going—is keep the backseat organized while keeping the kids sitting there entertained. A travel tray is an all-in-one, easy-to-use solution to store your little one’s activities and keep them within easy reach. Here’s what to look for in travel trays that are durable, easy to clean and, frankly, sanity savers.
The secret to a great travel tray is the ability to take it with you. Look for a travel tray that easily folds up with all the play items safely secured inside. The beauty is you can then use it inside your home, in a hotel, airplane, park or wherever your car ride takes you to keep the boredom at bay.
You want a travel tray that provides a storage space for everything from the all mighty tablet to sippy cups, crayons, lovies and more. Not only does it make those items easy to find, but also makes sure they’re secure and won’t bounce around or get loose during a bumpy ride.
The table top of the tray is one of the most important to consider. And by that, we mean make sure it’s easy to clean. Most trays pull double duty during snack time and need to easily wipe away drips and crumbs. But if you’re out of coloring books or the boredom really starts to kick in, a dry erase top that they’re encouraged to scribble on is a nice, worry-free touch.
