Well as most of u know im going away to spain in june and as its the first time ive been abroad i dont quite know how much stuff i should take for riley i dunno if it gets cold on a night or not and i dunno which is the best sun cream i had johnsons last year i probably sound well dumb but i thought id ask cos the mil is trying to take control and make me take all the stuff shes bought but its minging so i might have to buy more than ive allready got x

right all i can say is don't take any spray cans with you like deodrant hairspray etc & you have to put all your make up in a clear bag went to ireland in jan they took it away from me i was furious !!!

If i were you i'd use ambre solaire factor 50 if you're going abroad just to be sure

I'd take him a jacket or light jumper etc for a night just in case it does go a bit chilly, but i've never been abroad so don't quote me on it hun

Just have a great time

When I went abroad it was scorching on a night, we didn't even have sheets on. Whereabouts in spain are you going? I've never been with kids so would't know what to suggest for what to take. I've a tip for you though if anyone (esp your little boy) gets too hot. Stick a towel in the fridge when you grt up! I know it sounds barmy but when you go to bed get the towel out and it will be really cold-gorgeous!! My mum did it when we went to tuerkey years ago and the temp was in the 100's. Trust me

Don't you just love mother in laws!! I think you should take him a light jacket, cos when you're there you'll get so used to the heat that if it comes cool you'll be freezing!! Main thing is swimwear!!!
