As fellow parents will know, going on holiday with children is almost impossible. Whether it’s the constant screams of “are we nearly there yet?” from the back, or their tantrums and tiredness after a long day at the beach, parents who survive a holiday with children under the age of 10 deserve a medal come September. But of all the problems we face during the school holidays, luggage shouldn’t be one of them, and that’s why Olli Ella have a range of suitcases perfect for your summer holiday with the kids.
Olli Ella is a Global lifestyle brand, born in London in 2010 co founded by two sister Chloe and Olivia Brookman. They know what both children and parent’s want and need like the back of their hand! Their designs are stylish and fun whilst being practical too, and their products are all made from high-quality materials as well.
Take, for instance, the ‘See Ya Suitcase’. Made like an old-fashioned suitcase from time gone by, it’s perfect for your little one to have as hand-luggage on the flight. Made for children between 2-6 years old, it’s great for storing colouring books, ipads, board games and even a change of clothes in. It’s easy for your little one to pull behind them, and it’s also got an elastic so they can attached their favourite ‘pull along’ toy to it. The handle is retractable too, and it’s also got a handle on the side so it can be easily carried by parents as well. It comes in a range of colours, including mustard yellow, mint and rose, and it’s beautiful enough for the playroom or children’s bedroom to store their toys in at the end of the holiday.
Then there’s the ‘Luggy Straw Basket’. This basket has wheels, making it easy for your toddler to pull around the beach or airport. Handmade using fairtrade natural rattan, this basket is great for toddlers on their holidays. Think of all the treasure they’ll be able to hoard in it! It’s also good to use as a balance device for toddlers who are just learning to walk. The Luggy Straw Basket is also good for storing blankets and toys in too at home.
And finally, the piece which makes it clear this brand is owned and run by fellow mums: the ‘Play n Pack’. As we all know, it can be near impossible to keep our little folk entertained on even the shortest of journeys, let alone a long haul flight. This drawstring backpack is a super handy accessory for any journey, as it’s filled with a variety of activities for your little ones to play with. Including stickers, crayons, alphabet roll and binoculars, it will keep children entertained for hours, whether you’re on a flight, in the car, or whether you just want two minutes peace and quiet with a glass of wine by the pool.
