Overnight Stay at Grandparents

Hello. Me and my husband are going on our honeymoon soon and leaving our two children (DD is 1 and DS is 2) with my mum and step-dad. We'll be gone for 5 nights/6 days and I'm packing the kids bags now....
What do they need? Mum doesn't have any kid/baby stuff at all at her house.
Thank you

Could uour parents /inlaws stay at yours so in familiar surroundings for bedtime etc

Be easier not to pack everything and some children sleep well in travel cots

Others don't

Congratulations

Over the next week make a note of everything they wear, eat, play with, do, etc and take as much as you can with you.

It also depends how savvy their grandparents are too. I would say any sleep aids are most important. Toy, dummy, blanket, maybe even their duvet, etc.

Well everything they use in a week!
Travel cots, bedding, night clothes, day clothes, nappies, wipes, nappy bags, changing mat, bibs, bottles/cups, whatever they eat from, cutlery, favourite snacks, toys, books, the works!
