Holiday essentials you need to pack this summer holiday
With the summer holidays in full swing its prime holiday season. You’ve probably already booked your holiday and with only days or weeks to go you need to start prepping all the things you need to take.
Remembering everything is a hard task- I know I always forget something (luckily not my passport!). To help you get prepared I’ve curated a list of my top holiday must haves.
So whether you’re heading to Florida or a staycation in Brighton is on the cards, make sure you’ve checked these items off your list.
Bucket and spade
If you’re heading to the beach and you’ve got kids to keep happy, a bucket and space never fails to create hours of entertainment. This cute bucket and spade set comes with lots of fish themed shapes to create some sandy masterpieces. Buy it here.
Diarrhoea medicine
Whilst we all want to feel good on holiday, sometimes the inevitable happens and you get a dicky tummy. It’s always good to have diarrhoea medicine available just in case. Buy it for £5.55.
Books
Sitting on a sun lounger watching the world go by can start to get boring after a while. The Housemaid (recently released in cinema) is a wickedly aborbing thriller about a maid thrown into the glamorous life of housewife Nina.
Nina seems to have it all, the perfect daughter, the perfect husband and a gorgeous house. It’s a life the maid wants and starts to desire. However whilst everything seems as perfect as can be, not all is what it seems. I loved the film and i’ve been told the book is even better. Buy it for £5.00.
Upgrade your suitcases for your summer holiday
If you’ve not bought a new suitcase in a while you may be in need of a new case. This set of three from Amazon comes in five colours and has three sizes available, perfect for everything from a weekend away to a fortnight in Spain. Buy it for £59.99.
Nivea After Sun Moisturising lotion
You can guarantee there will always be one person who overdoes the sun (normally the adults). This soothing aftersun will soothe your skin for up to 24 hours and calm the nasty redness. Available for £4.99.
Packets of sweets
No holiday is complete without some sweets, especially on long car or plane journeys. This set of 12 Jelly Fave sweets is full of everyone’s faves from jelly pizzas to eggs. Buy it for £18.49.

Toys you need to kill the boredom in the summer holidays
