What do you keep in the car?

DD is 14 months old and I feel like I should have "stuff" in the car at all times. Like a box of stuff for her that doesn't leave the car. Problem is... I have no idea what should be in there besides maybe diapers, wipes and a toy. Do you keep stuff in your car for your LO? What essentials do you have in the car that stay in the car for emergencies or daily use?

I keep wipes, pull-ups (used to be diapers), and a stuffed animal (scooby doo). We also have a DVD entertainment system that is hooked up to the headrests so I have some DVD's too.

Re: What do you keep in the car?

I have a basket the velcros to my trunk space. I keep diapers, wipes, small garbage bags, toys, changing pad, extra clothing in ziplock bags, sunscreen & bug spray, shovels/pails. I only carry a very small diaper bag now. My oldest is trained and my youngest is training so I don't need much. Most days I just leave the bag in the truck.

I have a ziploc with a few diapers and a package of wipes. Other than I usually have a few toys, the ergo, a travel booster seat (for eating if we're out at a friends), and the shopping cart cover. All this in my little civic!

The only thing we keep in the car is the highchair/shopping cart cover and a portable booster seat in case we need to feed DS somewhere that doesn't have a highchair (like someone's house).

Re: What do you keep in the car?

we have an extra set of diapers/wipes/changing pad in the car but i've honestly never used them (and in fact i would bet they're probably way too small now)

the only thing we keep in there for him is a few random toys. His umbrella stroller is always there too.

If we go anywhere with him, we always have the diaper bag which is stocked with anything we'd need (theoretically)

Re: What do you keep in the car?

I keep a tupperware box with a complete change of clothing. I also keep a spare sweater or coat depending upon what I have. I still keep wipes, but when my kids were younger I had diapers there too.
