TGA News

It’s like the Sandman (if he was made from foam), and feels like a hug, like hearth and home. Carnivores may roll their eyes, but this is one plant that rides the sky. A wily shapeshifter, it morphs and molds, but its sense of fashion always holds. So, riddle me this and register there. And if you’re not in the HUB, then…where?

It hangs and circles but does not swing, and boomerangs back when given a ping. Although made by hand, it needs two arms. Work or play, it always charms. It’s all for one or one for all – depending on who is answering travel’s call. So, riddle me this and register there. And if you’re not in the HUB, then…where? For the answer, get to The HUB today!

It’s a pilot, but it cannot steer. It’s a plane, but really, gear. Although it breathes, it does not sigh. It keeps your secrets – but tells no lies. It’s practically perfect in every way – like having Mary Poppins in its DNA. So, riddle me this and register there. And if you’re not in the HUB, then…where? For the answer, get to The HUB today!

Traveling with kids requires special preparation – and gear. From backpacks, carry-ons and cases sized and scaled for smaller hands and bodies to kids’ comfort items like blankies and pillows to practical items like headphones and water bottles and more – we’re looking for travel gear that is made for – and made to appeal to – kids. If you manufacture kids’ travel gear, we’d love to feature your product in the digital pages of Travel Goods Magazine. If you are a retailer with an opinion or story about kids’ travel gear, we want to hear from you as well. To be considered for coverage, please email product details, MSRP, and product photo to kim@travel-goods.org by April 27, 2021.
