Headphones are most important to carry and never ever miss it. Carry some cushions ,which later can be used in games or back rest and lightweight blanket or picnic mats and i can bet you will never regret keeping them.
- When we travel with our own vehicle we carry a lot of thing with us and sometimes we carry unnecessary things also.Make a checklist before packing so that u keep only what to need and don’t miss important ones.
