Spring break is finally here. It’s time to pack the bags, hit the road and make memories—but a little planning keeps the fun from getting sidelined by germs. We’ve got the travel essentials you need to keep the whole family germ-free, so your break stays exactly what you want it to be: uninterrupted family time.
Pack Protection for the Road
Pack Lysol® Disinfectant Spray To Go in your bag or purse. This travel-size option easily fits anywhere and helps protect your family from germs on surfaces throughout your trip. When used as directed, Lysol® Disinfectant Spray To Go kills 99.9% of fungi, viruses and bacteria, including cold and flu viruses. Reach for it to disinfect high-touch surfaces like airplane armrests, rental car steering wheels or hotel door handles before your family touches them.
Make Handwashing a Fun Travel Habit
Education doesn’t need to pause during spring break. Before you travel, teach your kids proper handwashing so they can practice it throughout the trip. Show them the steps—wet hands, add soap, scrub for 20 seconds (sing the ABCs), get between fingers and under nails, rinse and dry. When you’re on the road, have them practice these habits at every stop—airports, hotels and restaurants—turning it into a real-world learning experience that keeps hands clean and germs away while they explore.
Eat Smart and Stay Hydrated
While disinfection practices help protect against germs, supporting your family’s overall wellness matters too. Encourage children to eat regular meals, stay hydrated and get enough rest during travel. These simple habits keep immune systems strong and help your family enjoy spring break to the fullest.
Sanitize Toys After Car Rides
Long car rides mean toys get dropped on seats, touched by sticky fingers and passed around between passengers. Germs accumulate quickly on the toys your kids play with for hours on end. Pack Lysol® Disinfecting Wipes to quickly clean plastic toys, game controllers and tablets at rest stops and when you arrive at your destination. A few quick wipes at the end of each car ride removes the germs that build up throughout the day, keeping your children’s toys—and your kids—protected during travel.
Return Home Fresh
When you return from spring break, wipe down suitcases, travel bags and frequently used items with Lysol® products before unpacking. This prevents any travel germs from settling into your home.
Spring break should be about making memories, not managing illness. With smart preparation and simple disinfection practices, your family can travel confidently and enjoy every moment together.
