Learn how to pack the Take Me Along bundle for travel, keep the keychain companion handy, and protect the full-size plush in your luggage.
Quick answer
Pack the full-size plush in your carry-on or suitcase using a compression bag, and clip the matching keychain to your bag or belt loop so comfort stays within reach.
Why the Take Me Along bundle is travel-friendly
The Take Me Along bundle pairs a full-size plush for home snuggles with a matching keychain companion. That two-piece design means you can leave the big plush in your hotel room and still have a soft friend with you on the go.
The keychain is small enough to clip to a backpack, purse, or belt loop, so it won't take up packing space or get lost in a bag. The full-size plush, while larger, can be compressed to fit neatly in your luggage without losing its shape.
Trade-off: carry-on vs. checked luggage
If you're flying, decide whether the full-size plush goes in your carry-on or checked bag. Carrying it with you keeps it safe from rough handling but takes up valuable cabin space. Checking it frees your hands but risks the plush getting squashed or dirty.
For road trips, the back seat is a good spot for the full-size plush, while the keychain can stay clipped to your day bag for quick access.
How to pack the Take Me Along bundle for travel
- Prep the plush: Give the full-size plush a quick fluff and check for any loose threads or dirt. If it's new, remove tags and give it a gentle shake to restore its shape. A clean, fluffed plush packs better and stays fresh longer.
- Compress the full-size plush: Place the full-size plush in a vacuum compression bag or a large zip-top bag and squeeze out as much air as possible. This reduces its volume and protects it from moisture. Compression saves space and keeps the plush dry.
- Pack the keychain separately: Do not bury the keychain in your suitcase. Keep it in your pocket, purse, or clipped to your carry-on so you can use it during the journey. The keychain is your on-the-go companion—keep it accessible.
- Position in luggage: Place the compressed plush in the center of your suitcase, surrounded by soft items like clothes, to cushion it from bumps. Avoid putting heavy items on top. Center placement minimizes pressure and keeps the plush intact.
- Attach the keychain on arrival: Once you reach your destination, clip the keychain to your day bag or belt loop, and take out the full-size plush to let it fluff back to its original shape. Unpacking the plush early helps it regain its loft.
