The dead easy way to pack kids’ clothes for travelling to take up less space
A CLEVER mum-of-three has revealed how to organise your kids’ clothing when packing – and the hack will also give you loads more space too.
Aimee Sieh, from Arizona, the US, shared the trick just in time for summer, as parents are jetting off to enjoy the warmer months with their tots.
According to Aimee, the answer to an organised suitcase or backpack is using a clear zip bag with a seal.
”When travelling with kids, pre-pack their outfits one for day and a couple extras.
”Put them in a Ziploc baggie and squeeze all the air out.”
She went on to demonstrate and explain in her video: ”When you’re packing, it takes up way less space in the suitcase and it stays organised for the entire trip.”
These sealed bags are available at most supermarkets, including Tesco where a packet of 20 retails for £1.85.
Meamwhile, Wilko also offer a packet 15 of zip seal bags for £2.
Aimee, who was about to board on a flight to Iowa, chuckled: ”First flight with all 3 kids. WISH ME LUCK! ”
The video, uploaded on TikTok where the savvy mum posts under the username @aimeesieh, soon went viral, winning her more than 1.2million views.
Hundreds flocked to comments, where some thanked Aimee and others – shared their tips and tricks.
”I do this even with my own stuff, get a empty pillow case and put the dirty clothes in there,” said one summer lover.

A pro added: ”Teacher hack: cut a teeny tiny corner off from a corner of the bottom of the bag.
”Allows air to come out and you can stack more on top of each other!”
Someone else, meanwhile, advised another method: ”on road trip I use laundry basket instead of suit case. holds more and have basket for dirty clothes on vaca [vacation].”
”I do this when they stay with my parents to make it easier! Label with names too,” a fellow mum penned.
