I am so excited to have another guest post by Claire Hastings. I personally have a love/hate relationship with packing. I am efficient, but would not call myself a minimalist by any means! If you are curious how I pack, click here. But read through for Claire’s awesome tips on how to pack when space is at a premium!

My family loves amusement parks and my kids love rides. They also can’t get enough of the pool! So I knew this summer we wanted to try a full-on water park for the first time. This week we decided to venture to Splish Splash water park in Long Island, New York for an awesome day of water rides! UPDATE: Excited to say this has become a yearly tradition! One of our favorite summer activities for sure!
Momma To Go would like to thank Splish Splash for hosting us. As always, all opinions are my own.
I am so excited to have another fabulous guest blogger today! Natasha and David are the bloggers behind Meldrums On The Move. They write about family travel and are eager to make family travel cheaper, easier and more enjoyable. I love that they are digital nomads and have been all over the world! #LifeGoals
Natasha wrote this awesome post about her hometown of Innerleithen, Scotland … a country that is definitely on my bucket list! Keep reading for everything you want to know about visiting Innerleithen!
You all know I love the beach and pool, but another summer (and spring/fall) activity that our family loves is to visit theme parks! This past winter we were lucky enough to visit Legoland Florida twice, have a brunch at Chef Mickey at Walt Disney World, and have visited our local amusement park, Adventureland, many times.
One park that has always made our summer must-do list is Sesame Place in Langhorne, Pennsylvania. I honestly do not think we will go this year, for the first time in 5 summers! I am a bit sad about this! But my guys have “graduated” to a bigger water park (we have a Splish Splash visit scheduled in a couple of weeks), but we have gone to Sesame Place for the past five summers and I am thrilled to share my best Sesame Place tips to help younger families plan their most awesome trip.

I am so excited to introduce today’s guest blogger! I noticed, on social media that she was cruising the Carnival Pride with her family, and asked her to write a review to share with Momma To Go readers!
Victoria is a new blogger over at One Sharp Mama. During the week, her Monday thru Friday, is being a Sonographer at a local outpatient radiology office. She has a fairy tale husband and is a mother to two daughters. She loves sharing her stories on parenting, infertility, organization, and some favorite recipes. If you enjoy reading this post on Carnival Pride Tips, make sure to check out the rest of her posts over at One Sharp Mama.
I am a beach girl. I can sit in the sand literally all day. My kids love the beach too, but we also spend a lot of summer days at the pool. Honestly, managing elementary age kids in a pool is often easier than keeping them safe on a large beach and in the ocean.
When we head to the beach, I have the packing down. If you missed it, read my beach essentials post – everything you need to bring to the beach and great packing tips too! Today, I am going to share with you our must-haves for your day out at the local pool, keep reading for what to pack in your pool bag!
Last week I put out a call for Guest Posts and of course the awesome Claire Hastings sent me this amazing article about her travel to Riyadh! I am so excited to share it all with you.

I love traveling with my little ones, but sometimes mom and dad need a vacation! Last fall we took a longer getaway to Las Vegas, and recently we went on short holiday to Greenport, Long Island. We have also taken day trips to this lovely North Fork town with our kids. Out in Greenport there is lots to do (and eat) for everyone!
UPDATE: AS OF OCTOBER 2017, MOMMA TO GO IS NO LONGER ACCEPTING GUEST POSTS.
May was a super busy blogging month for me! I wrote about Hawaii, Wine Tasting in both Italy and Long Island, the best beach essentials, tips for flying with your little ones, among other fun things. I also participated in TWO Awesome collaborations.
Momma To Go would like to thank Bedell Cellars for hosting hubby and I for wine tasting at Bedell Cellars. As always, all opinions are my own.
I live in a suburb of New York City. We can be in Manhattan in less than an hour train ride. We live about a 10 minute drive to the closest ocean beach. And in less than two hours, we can drive out to the North Fork of Long Island – rich with farms, marinas, and lots and lots of vineyards!
On the East End of Long Island, there are so many wineries and tasting rooms to visit. About three years ago we discovered the best spot for Wine Tasting on Long Island – Bedell Cellars. We had been longing to return, and I was super excited to recently be hosted by Bedell for an afternoon of wine tasting and a behind the scenes tour of their amazing facility.
