Nothing beats a family adventure, but getting to your destination with the kids in tow can often be a little trickier than it should be. So, to make that journey to the trail easier, we’ve rounded up some of the best little-person accessories you can buy.

LittleLife Safety ID Strap

If your kids are prone to a bit of exploration at the worst possible time, it might be worth picking up this ID strap. Simply pop on your contact details, strap it on – that’s easy thanks to the Velcro strap and relax. Having a choice between a dinosaur and a ladybird pattern should make it universally accepted too.

Bobble Bottle

Bottled water is expensive, yet tap water isn’t always be completely to everyone’s taste, especially for children when you’re heading somewhere off the beaten track. This bottle features a built-in filter, to spruce up that regular tap water and turn it into something much tastier. There are lots of colours to choose from and you should get a few months of filtered water before you have to buy a new one.

GoPro Hero

Finally, the king of the action camera has released a model that you won’t mind letting the children play around with. Coming in at under £100, the Hero is still rugged, still records 1080p video at 30fps and still produces fantastic looking, unique video. Great for capturing those magic outdoor moments from all angles.

Griffin Cinema Seat for iPad Air

Strap this to the back of your car’s headrest, slip in your movie filled iPad Air and your kids will have constant entertainment for the long journey ahead. There’s a handy pocket in the back for storing accessories too – like a charging cable and a pair of earphones.

Braven BRV-1

Heading off the beaten track is great for many things, but keeping tech charged and working is not one of those. Braven’s BRV-1 though is perfect for taking on a trip. First off it’s a Bluetooth speaker, so you and your family don’t have to stick with those tinny phone speakers. It’s also waterproof, but best of all it’ll recharge your phone or tablet thanks to the in-built battery.

$99.99 | Braven

Trunki ride-on suitcase

Having your kids lugging round luggage is hardly their idea of fun, so why not let them ride it? Trunki’s suitcases are colourful, come covered in lots of different patterns and are practical to boot. Made from a durable plastic, this will take a beating without falling to bits and it’s designed to be hand luggage size.

TravelRest Travel Pillow

Looking to reinvent the classic travel pillow, TravelRest doesn’t sit behind your neck; instead it gives you something comfy to lean on. Great for long car journeys, it attaches to the headrest and can be deflated when not in use.

Igloo Iceless Thermoelectric Cooler

If you’re heading on a long trip, especially with the kids in tow, then you’ll definitely need to pick up a cooler. This particular one has a 26-28 quart capacity, which is up to around 32 Coke cans, has an adjustable temperature gauge and can run from your car’s 12V plug.

Bestek Car Power Inverter

Perfect if you’re heading somewhere where power may be limited, this clever red box plugs into the 12v jack in your car, expanding its capability. You can plug a regular mains plug in, to charge your laptop for example, but we really love the addition of a USB port. This 2.1amp port is ideal for keeping your phone or tablet juiced.
