KidCo PeaPod Rocks!
We’ve been doing a lot of traveling. Wait, you already know that. So, we’ve been away from home A LOT! And Micah’s crib – packed up in a U-box somewhere….who knows which one. The little man has to sleep somewhere, somewhere with walls so he can’t crawl away. The KidCo PeaPod (like the KidCo GoPod) is a life saver. Pack N’ Plays are great, but they are big to be toting across the country in my little car, no way it would have fit with all our stuff, cat, and car seat. The KidCo PeaPod packs up small, opens itself, and is safe to contain my little man.
KidCo PeaPod is Travel Size
Seriously, this thing can fit in a carry on! So we can bring it back with us anytime we fly to MN!
And to get it ready for baby, just unzip it and pull it out: it pops open and it’s ready! It is a little hard to fold back up, but we followed the instructions the first few times and since then it’s been easy! The bottom is padded, but it’s on the outside so no risk of baby working his way underneath!
The PeaPod is Safe
In addition to the pad being on bottom, the PeaPod is totally enclosed (two zipper-openings, like a tent) so baby can’t crawl out. And there is plenty of mesh on the PeaPod so it’s breathable. KidCo has safety in mind when they put warnings on the bottom, like to leave padding outside and not let baby sleep with blankets, etc. The PeaPod Plus isn’t really meant for kids under 1 but MIcah did fine.
The PeaPod can Grow with Baby
The PeaPod Plus is meant for kids 1 – 5 years old, the regular PeaPod is a little smaller for kids 1 – 3. Micah didn’t seem totally lost in it, but the PeaPod is definitely big enough for him to continue using it as he gets older. I’m excited to go camping and use it as a mini tent within our tent! And maybe when he’s bigger he’ll use it as a play tent.
Micah Likes his PeaPod
As much as a kid can like somewhere he has to sleep at least. His life has been turned upside down over the past few weeks, so he’s had difficulty sleeping, period. But he seemed to sleep fine in the PeaPod. The first time we set it out, he was a little wary of it, but he quickly warmed up to it, crawling in and out playing. He slept in it while we packed our house and in the hotels on the way south.

I was provided with the KidCo PeaPod Plus (Kiwi, yay!) as compensation. Opinions are 100% my own.
We’re always looking for fun and family friendly places to go visit, so this pod would definitely come in handy.
We’re going to be taking our first plane trip with the two littles next year!
Michael travels alot! This PeaPod would have come in handy!
This will be great for traveling for the holidays
Kidco Peapod Plus – Kiwi
We travel frequently to visit family and see new places. The KidCo PeaPod would be be a safe and handy solution for the little one.
We haven’t had a lot of family travel adventures as yet… the furthest we’ve gone is about 3.5 hours away but we hope to visit my sister in TX soon (about 10-12 hours away). This would be perfect.
I also like their Kidco Children’s Bed Rail – White Mesh.
All we do is travel! My littlest one was born overseas while my husband and I were teaching! We have lots of use for this:)
We live 6 hours from family so we travel home often! The Peapod would be so much easier to take than the PNP!
We try to have family vacations every year.
This would be great for an upcoming trip to visit grandparents.
We love road trips! What we don’t love is staying in hotels and having dd sleeping between dh and I in a full size bed! My dad is usually with us so we don’t have any other option since she is too big for a play yard! I think this would be perfect!
My favorite item is the PeaPod Plus!
I think the kid-co gopod activity seat looks cool
we have gone from TN to WA in a military PCS our little one was always so glad to get out of his carseat.
We visit family in Minnesota. Vacation in Hawaii and New Mexico.
We usually take about 5 trips a year. We go to disney in may and go visit family throughout the year.
We live in New Hampshire but spend a lot of time traveling to Vermont to visit with family.
I really love the Kidco Go-Pod Portable Activity Seat – Pistachio.
We travel to visit family nearby which can sometimes be an adventure with an independent 2 year old. We’re hoping to take a family vacation in the next year or two.
We love going on adventures to Disneyland.
Thanks for the chance.

South Carolina has been the best. We did a lot of family things on that trip. Wish we could go back

We go to visit family around Chicago about twice a year.
I’m taking 4 kids to florida over Christmas. Oh my……
This would be great for my sister to travel with her family over the holidays!!
I’ve been wanting a Kidco Go-Pod too.
We’re going on a cross country trip soon and this would come in super handy.
I really enjoy camping with my family
just came back from a 1200 mile trip to wisconsin. I would have loved to had this on that trip. Our next adventure is to california, 3200 miles so i would definitely love to have it for that one. lol
we love to travel to colorado to see family.
we visit family in tennessee and oregon and washington
I normally travel to Florida to see my sister
With the holidays coming up our trips will be more frequent. This will be a help.
All of our family lives in a different state so when we go visiting we always go on a road trip.
We also love traveling to the beach as often as possible during the year as it’s our favorite place.
