The holiday season is upon us! I am always an early shopper for the holidays and like to get it done early so I can spend time enjoying other parts of the holiday season. So today, I am sharing with you our Yellow Van Travels Gift Guide for 2018. You can see our previous gift guides here, here, and here. You will probably see a few of the same things on this gift guide (the gifts are that good!) as well as a few new things we found this year that we are absolutely in love with!
Gifts for Grown-Ups
Packing Cubes
These are on our list every year. Because they are amazing! We love, love, LOVE packing cubes and everyone needs them if you travel. They keep you organized and sane while you’re living out of a suitcase. See our review of our favorite Fishers Finery ones here.
Spivo Gear
We LOVE to use our Spivo gear whenever we go on vacation. They have great photo gear for the adventure seekers. I love that they have photo accessories for cameras, GoPros as well as phones. Pretty much however you want to document your vacations and adventures, Spivo has a great product to help. Check out their website here. You can also use our promo code BNSAVEDYOU15.
Montem Gear
We worked earlier this year with Montem and we fell in love with their products. They are high quality and are built to last. We have a backpack that we LOVE for hiking and camping trips and we also have their outdoor blanket that we love when we are camping or even hanging out in the yard. See our full review of their products here.
Groove Life Silicone Ring
If you’re looking for a good stocking stuffer for the adventurer in your life, take a look at Groove Life Silicone Rings. They have TONS of options, beautiful packaging, and have an amazing warranty. Check them out here.
Travel Bags
Again, to help stay organized while traveling, a new set of travel bags are always a great gift or stocking stuffer idea. You can use them for anything from toiletries to jewelry to keeping moments from your trip in a safe spot. I love mine from Ginger Patch Designs and I also LOVE my RuMe Baggie All Baggie. (For 20% off your purchase at MyRuMe.com, use the code RRYellowVan514)
Maps
If you have a traveler in your life who already has every travel gadget and gizmo imaginable, consider getting them a map to decorate their home. We love our scratch off maps from Travelbug. They are a fun way to see where you’ve been and help plan where to go next.
Gifts for Kids
Crayola My First Palm Grip Crayons 
Lucy is getting these for Christmas this year and I’m excited to see how she likes them! But even if you don’t have a baby or toddler, crayons, paper and other art supplies are always a great gift idea!
Skip Hop Backpack
Lucy is also getting this Skip Hop Backpack for Christmas. She is old enough to walk now and is getting pretty good at it! By Christmas she will probably be able to carry this backpack with a toy or two and some snacks when we are traveling.
Water Bottle
Every kid needs a good water bottle! They are easy to take in the car or while traveling or even when you’re just hanging out around the house. We have these ones from Contigo and Lucy really likes them.
Utility Wagon
Lucy got this for her birthday this year and it is SO. NICE. We love it while traveling or even when we are out and about around town. It is easy to put her in and take her out without having to buckle her into her stroller every single time. It also is great to haul all the extra stuff that babies and kids need. This wagon also folds up really small and flat making it easy to store and transport.
