It’s that magical time of year once again — SPRING BREAK! Whether you’re craving the sun or the snow, Spring Break is the perfect opportunity to take a fun family trip. I visited KTLA this morning to share some destination ideas and must-have travel products for the whole family. Check out what I featured below and watch the full segment by clicking HERE

 

Ritz-Carlton Residences, Waikiki Beach – Oahu, Hawaii

If the tropical sun is what you’re craving, head to the Ritz-Carlton Residences in Waikiki Beach. It’s the perfect destination for families because the resort features ocean-facing, residential-style accommodations so you get the best of both worlds: a luxury Ritz-Carlton experience and the comfort, space and amenities of home that families desire. Residences feature fully stocked kitchens with premium appliances so you can cook from the comfort of your own room. There’s also a washing machine and dryer in each residence, which is great for families who want to pack light. The resort is located just a few minutes walk from the ocean where families can soak up the sun.

Ritz-Carlton, Bachelor Gulch – Beaver Creek, CO

If you want to get in a final snow trip of the season, spring break is the perfect opportunity! The Ritz-Carlton Bachelor Gulch has wonderful amenities for families, whether they partake in skiing or not. The luxury mountain resort offers ski-in, ski-out access to 1,800 acres of pristine terrain. Non-skiing families can enjoy a variety of activities like stargazing snowshoe hikes, one-of-a-kind Rocky Mountain dining experiences, and kid-friendly programs daily. Plus, the resort is dog-friendly for all those families who can’t travel without their fur babies!

Kids Travel Activities from World Market

Whether you’re heading to the sun or the snow, you’ll need some activities to keep the kids entertained while traveling to your destination. Rather than turning to tech, check out World Market’s selection of toys and activities that are ideal for travel. They have some fun Portable Fingerboard games, which are miniaturized versions of popular sports like basketball and football. I also have a set of 6 magnetic puzzle games perfectly sized for travel and thanks to the magnets, you don’t have to worry about losing the pieces. Or, kids can get artsy with the Spirograph travel tin and create geometric designs using gears and wheels. These are some great ways to encourage the kids to put down their iPads and expand their imaginations with some fun non-tech toys!

Knours. Double Duty Mist

Whether you’re headed to the sun or snow, both conditions can do a number on a mom’s skin. That’s why I love Knours. Double Duty Mist. It’s the world’s first customizable toner with two layers to address complexion needs in every type of weather. The bottom layer has aloe vera water to nourish skin, perfect for soothing sunburn and toning. The top layer features jojoba oil and botanical squalene to deeply moisturize, which is great for soothing windburn and the drying conditions of the snow. So depending on what your skin needs, you either shake or don’t shake the bottle. If your skin is dry, shake the bottle to mix the layers. If your skin is acne-prone at the moment, don’t shake it at all. What’s really cool is Knours. addresses the link between a woman’s cycle and her skin with a convenient app that tells you when to use what product. This travel-size is carry on friendly, and there’s a full size since it’s a must-have product whether you’re traveling or not!

NENERGY BOOST

I think we can all agree that the worst part of Spring Break is when it’s over. Getting home is exhausting and depending on how far you’ve traveled from your snowy or tropical paradise, you’re likely to be jet lagged or dehydrated. Luckily, NENERGY BOOST can get you back to feeling 100{f61ce11df02f678d2c5f2e2930066b6f289804cca52fd0883d27a91eb0b54a2b} in minutes. NENERGY BOOST has an office in Brentwood where a medical doctor will customize a vitamin IV to make you instantly feel refreshed after a long trip. And if you can’t make it to Brentwood, they have a mobile service where they’ll come to you. Or, if needles aren’t your thing, they also have a NENERGY boost drink and supplements that are perfect for a quick energy boost on-the-go.
