Amazon Baby Finds || Diaper Bag Essentials

by ToteSavvy Team on Jan 23, 2024
Having a baby is an exciting (and slightly terrifying) adventure. From the moment you find out you're expecting, your mind starts racing with all the things you'll need to buy. And let's be honest, there's a lot of stuff out there to search through! We've tested and found some of the best diaper bag baby finds on Amazon to save the day, your budget, (and your sanity) so you can enjoy more in motherhood. The Diaper Bag Backpack: Because Who Needs Extra Baggage? Let's face it, parenting is like a never-ending game of "how much stuff can I carry?" That's where the diaper bag backpack comes in. With its spacious compartments, extra zippered pockets, and comfortable straps, it's the perfect hands-free solution for all your baby's needs. Plus, it's stylish enough to make you feel like a cool parent (even when you're covered in spit-up). The Diaper Bag Organizer: Because Chaos is Overrated Let's be real, finding that one pacifier or extra pair of socks in the bottomless pit of your diaper bag can be a real challenge. That's where the ToteSavvy Mini Bag Organizer comes in. With its handy compartments and pockets, it keeps everything in its rightful place. No more digging through mountains of diapers and wipes just to find that elusive teething toy! The Mini also features a cooler pocket perfect to keep a bottle while you're on-the-go, a key clasp so you never have to dig for your keys one handed, and a changing mat for those unavoidable backseat and Target bathroom diaper changes.  The Diaper Bag Essentials: Our Favorites To Make Mom-Life Easier Burp Cloths: The Unsung Heroes of Spit-Up Spit happens. And when it does, you'll be glad you have a stash of these muslin burp cloths on hand. These soft, absorbent wonders are like mini capes for your shoulder, ready to swoop in and save your clothes from the dreaded baby spit-up. Pacifiers: The Secret Weapon Against Meltdowns When your little one is on the verge of a meltdown, a pacifier can be your secret weapon. Just make sure you have a few extras on hand, because pacifiers have a way of disappearing into thin air (or under the couch). We love to store them in a Paci Case so there's always an extra (or two!) on hand! Sound Machine: The Sleep Superhero Every parent knows that a good night's sleep is worth its weight in gold. That's where a sound machine comes in. With soothing sounds like white noise, ocean waves or gentle lullabies, this gadget can help your little one drift off to dreamland. And the best part? It's portable, so you can take it on the go and ensure sweet dreams wherever you are! Attach it to the stroller, your baby carrier, or even the car seat for on-the-go naps. Wipes Container: The Quick Change Champion Diaper changes can be a messy business, but with a wipes container in your diaper bag, you'll be ready for anything. It keeps your wipes fresh and easily accessible, so you can tackle even the messiest of diaper disasters with ease. The best part: The wipes don't get stuck--seasoned parents, you know what we mean. No more endless strands of wipes causing chaos during diaper changes. Wet Bags: The Superhero Sidekick When it comes to dirty diapers or wet clothes, a wet bag is a must-have. These waterproof wonders keep the mess contained, so you can toss them in your diaper bag without fear of leaks or odors. Plus, they're great for storing wet swimsuits or messy bibs, making them the ultimate multitaskers in your parenting toolkit. Trash Bag Dispenser: Poop Bags--Baby Edition Okay, we've all seen these for pups, but they've been reimagined--baby edition. This trash bag dispenser is so convenient to have on hand for those messy diapers until you can get to a trash can. Medicine Container: The Health Hero When your little one or (yourself!) isn't feeling their best, a medicine container is there to save the day. In the larger sections, you can even store hair ties! Hand Sanitizer: The Germ Defender Hand sanitizer is essential in any handbag and a diaper bag, especially. Pin & Save For Later! Amazon's diaper bag baby finds are a game-changer for any parent on the go. With these stylish and practical options, you'll be prepared for anything that parenthood throws your way. So go ahead, embrace the chaos, and rock that diaper bag like the superhero parent you are and be sure to stay organized with ToteSavvy!

Gift Ideas for Teachers with ToteSavvy

by ToteSavvy Team on Aug 22, 2023
Teachers play a crucial role in our children's lives. They dedicate their time and effort to educate and inspire students. Showing appreciation for their hard work and dedication with thoughtful gifts is a great way to express gratitude. Here are some gift ideas that we just know teachers will love! ToteSavvy Bag Organizer: The Key to Organization A ToteSavvy Bag Organizer is the perfect gift for any teacher. The Mini is a great option knowing it fits in most backpacks and handbags. It features an insulated cooler pocket perfect for drinks and snacks on-the-go, a key clasp, and other various-sized pockets that allow the ultimate organizing experience. The middle slip pocket is also great for their phone, a tablet, or a small notebook! Notebook: A Tool for Organization and Creativity A high-quality notebook or notepad is an essential tool for any teacher. It helps them stay organized, jot down important notes, and plan their lessons effectively. Consider gifting a notebook with a stylish cover or personalized touch to make it extra special. We also love a Clipfolio--they can take their notes on-the-go to a meeting or to the teacher's lounge! Planner: Keeping Teachers on Top of Their Game Teachers have a lot on their plate, from lesson planning to grading assignments. A planner can be a lifesaver for them. Look for a planner with ample space for daily, weekly, and monthly planning. It should also have sections for to-do lists and important dates. Reusable Water Cup: Hydration on the Go Teachers are always on the move, and staying hydrated is essential for their well-being. A reusable water cup is a practical and eco-friendly gift. We love Stanley cups because they're high-quality and will keep drinks hot or cold all day long. You can also include darling straw covers to add a special touch to their cup! Coffee Cup: Fueling Teachers' Passion Many teachers rely on a cup of coffee to kickstart their day. A personalized coffee cup with an inspiring message or their name can make their morning routine even more enjoyable. We thought these coffee cups were the cutest! Stationery, Pens & Highlighters: Make Learning Stand Out Teachers often need various stationery items to create engaging learning experiences for their students. Consider gifting a set of colorful markers or highlighters, sticky notes, or a whiteboard marker set.  Pens are another essential tool for teachers, and having a reliable set of pens can make their work easier. Look for pens with smooth writing and a comfortable grip. Consider gifting a set with different colors to add a touch of creativity to their notes and grading. These small but useful items can make a big difference in the classroom. Hand Sanitizer: Thoughtful and Practical Hand Sanitizer is one of those items that is crucial for every teacher--especially in the cooler months when sicknesses are spreading rapidly through the classroom. Grab your little one's teacher a hand sanitizer that's just for them. One they can keep at their desk and know they will have on hand when they need it the most.  Remember, when choosing gifts for teachers, it's the thought and effort that count the most. Consider their preferences and needs, and personalize the gifts whenever possible. By showing appreciation through these thoughtful gifts, you can make a teacher's day and inspire them to continue making a difference in the lives of their students.

Back to School Must-Haves

When it comes to preparing for a successful day at school, having the right backpack essentials can make all the difference. Whether you have a little one heading to elementary school or you're a college student navigating campus life, here are some must-have items to pack in your backpack. Notebooks and Pens Stay organized and ready to take notes with a few notebooks and pens. Choose notebooks with durable covers and lined pages. Having a variety of pen colors can also help you color-code your notes for better organization. Sticky notes are another great thing to toss in your backpack for reminders and notes. For the little ones, don't forget to pack pencils, a pencil sharpener, crayons, markers, a ruler, glue sticks, scissors, and even some white out! We love to organize these small backpack essentials in The Clear Pouch Trio Set. The Medium Pouch is perfect for a spare outfit, snacks, and personal items. The Small Pouch makes for a great pencil, pen, etc. case! Planner & Folder Stay organized and manage your time effectively with a planner. Write down important dates, deadlines, and assignments to stay on top of your academic responsibilities. This will help you avoid last-minute cramming and reduce stress. Be sure to grab a folder or even one for each class to keep papers and important assignments organized. Water Bottle & Snacks Staying hydrated throughout the day is crucial for maintaining focus and concentration. Keep your energy levels up with healthy snacks. Opt for portable options like granola bars, trail mix, or fruit. These will provide a quick boost when you need it most, whether it's during a long lecture or a study session. We love to pack snacks in the LunchBots Snack Container! Laptop or Tablet In today's digital age, having a laptop or tablet is essential for students. It allows you to access online resources, take notes electronically, and complete assignments. Make sure to invest in a reliable device that suits your needs. Portable Charger Don't let a dead battery hinder your productivity. A portable charger can be a lifesaver when you're on the go and need to charge your devices--especially your phone. Look for one with multiple USB ports and sufficient battery capacity. Personal Care Items Don't forget about personal care! Pack essentials like hand sanitizer, tissues, and lip balm to keep yourself clean and comfortable throughout the day. These small items can make a big difference in your overall well-being. You can even toss in some band-aids--you never know when you or a classmate might need one. Extra Clothes or Layers Be prepared for temperature changes or spills by packing an extra set of clothes or layers. This is especially important for younger students who may have accidents or get messy during art projects. It's always better to have a spare set of clothes on hand. By including these backpack must-haves, you or your little one will be well-equipped to tackle any challenges that come your way during the school day. P.S. Grab the darling Go Dash Dot Maya Backpack right on our site! Remember, being prepared is the key to success!

Trending Backpacks Organized & Packed Three Ways Using the ToteSavvy Mini

by ToteSavvy Team on Feb 27, 2023
We get asked all the time on Instagram if we have an organizer that will fit a backpack, and the answer to that is YES!! Our Mini Bag Organizer is the perfect size for most backpacks and can help you stay organized no matter what you're packing for. The most requested to see was baby & toddler backpacks and everyday backpacks, so that's what we'll be focusing on in this post! A backpack for you & your toddler // When it comes to packing for your and your toddler, you still find yourself needing diapers, wipes, an extra outfit, and an endless supply of snacks. The ToteSavvy Mini helps keep these essentials organized. Don't forget, the Mini has an included changing mat, insulated pocket, and the center pocket fits a full-size wallet. The Go Dash Dot Maya Backpack is a great option to use, too! It fits the Mini and your essentials perfectly, and there are several additional pockets that you can still use for other essentials. The bottom of the backpack has quite a large pocket that is perfect for spare clothes for you & your toddler, an extra pair of play shoes, or even a picnic blanket if you're headed out for a park lunch date! A backpack for you & baby // The Dagne Dover Dune Backpack and the ToteSavvy Mini in Almond are a gorgeous combo for a baby bag--especially if you love a neutral pink or have a sweet baby girl! Of course, when packing for baby, you need a spare outfit, bottle, diapers, wipes, diaper cream, and a paci clip. Inside the backpack, you can also fit a swaddle, there's a padded laptop pocket should you need to bring yours along, and a second back section that is roomy as well. Another great feature about this backpack is it has several small pockets on the back and sides for easy-access to your smaller essentials, your little one's toys, or extra snacks! Since the backpack is rather deep, you could also stock it filled with extra diapers along the bottom--it's always helpful to have more diapers than you think you'll need. That's the last thing you want to run out of while on-the-go with your little one. An everyday backpack // We are love, loving the MZ Wallace Metro Backpack with the ToteSavvy Mini in Soft Grey. It's such a good everyday, neutral combo. In our everyday bag example, we wanted to pack it to the brim to show you just how much the Mini can help organize. We packed a laptop charger, water bottle in the insulated cooler pocket, a full-size wallet in the center pocket, snacks and water mixes, keys on the key clasp, a hair clip, and a few other small essentials that fit in the convenient small pockets. Inside the backpack in addition to the Mini, the Metro Backpack has a padded laptop pocket and space to pack your planner, too. There are two smaller pockets inside the backpack that could be useful for snacks or pens, and there's also a back zippered pocket that you could use for feminine products, makeup, or anything else you need on-the-go. To see these backpacks in action, be sure to head to our Instagram and check out our latest Reels featuring these darling backpacks!
