**Thanks Crane for sponsoring this conversation.**
We are truly a road trip savvy family.
With me being from Pittsburgh, Chris from the City, and living in Virginia in between, we traveled a lot. Now for us, most of these trips weren’t glamorous ones, but road trips to see friends and families in cities we were missing – especially around the holidays. Because of this, little Branden knew how to occupy himself while in the car for long stretches of time. Since that time, we have been loyal customers of Crane because of how great their products work and last through the years (and hello – how cute are their animal nursery humidifiers?). But this year they are introducing their new Crane Cool Mist Humidifier for travel, and wow!
This holiday season, we will be in NYC for the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and then having dinner with my mother-in-law; then for Christmas we will be road tripping it to Pittsburgh and bringing this Crane Cool Mist Humidifier with us! Since this is the time of year for the sniffles and congestion, it will provide natural relief for my little guy or any member of our family that needs a humidifier close by. After all, having a good night’s sleep whenever you are traveling is key to having a fun time.
I also have to add that (since I have baby on the brain), I’m thinking a lot more about shopping smarter and taking our NYC (tiny apartment) lifestyle into consideration when choosing products whenever we do have a second child. This humidifier is not only an IHA Innovation Award Winner, but is the perfect size for city living while still doing exactly what you need a humidifier to do. Here are some more cool key features:
- Clean Control Antimicrobial Material is proven to help reduce mold and bacteria growth up to 99.96%*
- Includes carrying bag, portable tank, and power adapter that works with power outlets or USB ports
- Auto-Off sensor activates when water tank is empty
Beyond all the specifics, the most important aspect that stands out to me is that this is actually recommended as an alternative to cough and cold medicine. I would much rather have a humidifier in the home with Branden and see its effect on his congestion before putting any chemicals into his delicate body. In fact, this season he has been suffering from a cough that still hasn’t gone away, and the Crane Cool Mist Humidifier has been running beside his bed, helping him soothe his coughing and drift off into dreamland each night. You can call it Mamas intuition, or just a fantastic product – maybe a bit of both?
Will you be traveling this holiday? I’ll bet the Crane Cool Mist Humidifier would do your family good!
Fashionably Yours,
Allison

We have forced hot air heat in our house, so the air is really dry. We have to run humidifiers in all of our bedrooms. This one sounds like a great choice.
Divina says
Honestly this is genius for when traveling.
Maggie says
I love that size! Perfect for traveling! We use humidifiers during the winter in the bedrooms due to allergies. Ours are too large to cart around when we travel and my parents and in-laws never use them. This humidifier would be perfect!
Brenda Brown says
This would have been perfect when I went on my trip awhile back!

What a great product! I’m leaving for Malaysia on Saturday and will be traveling for two and half weeks and wish I was bringing one of these along. Can you use essential oils with this?
Liz Mays says
I used one for my son on a nightly basis because he had bloody noses all the time. It helped so much.
