A good kids' suitcase makes travelling more organised and more fun. Your child has their own space for clothes, toys or cuddly toys, while you can pack and organise more easily. At ByMetz, you'll find kids' suitcases that are suitable as cabin luggage and designed for comfortable travel with children.
For a weekend away, a holiday or a flight, a kids' suitcase should above all be practical to use. It should also be easy to carry and fun enough for your child to proudly pull along themselves. The collection includes child-friendly designs and compact sizes that are ideal for travelling with the family.
What should you look for when choosing a kids' suitcase?
For this category, a few features are more important than the rest. A kids' suitcase does not need to be large, but it should be smartly organised and easy to use on the go.
- Cabin size - handy for short trips and flights, and practical because the suitcase stays compact and lightweight.
- Sturdy exterior - a hardcase helps protect belongings during transport.
- Practical interior - elastic straps and a zipped compartment help keep clothes and loose items neatly in place.
- Child-friendly design - a print or colour your child likes makes it more fun to take the suitcase along themselves.
Why a cabin-size kids' suitcase is so practical
A compact kids' suitcase is especially useful because you can quickly access the most important items. Think of spare clothes, pyjamas, a cuddly toy or small toys for the journey. This is convenient for parents during a flight, car journey or sleepover, while having their own suitcase gives children a sense of independence.
The kids' suitcases in this category are designed for compact travel. This makes them a logical choice if you are looking for a suitcase that is easy to take along and is not unnecessarily large or heavy for a child.
Hardcase kids' suitcases for everyday travel convenience
Within ByMetz's selected range, you'll find ABS hardcase kids' suitcases. This is a practical choice if you are looking for a suitcase that is sturdy and protects its contents well. This is particularly useful for children, as a suitcase is often used more intensively on the go.
The interior matters too. An organisation with an elastic strap and zipped compartment helps keep belongings neatly stored, so clothes and small travel items are less likely to get mixed up. This makes packing easier and unpacking at your destination just as simple. If you want to explore more options, you can of course also view our other suitcases.
Choose a kids' suitcase your child will really enjoy taking along
Besides practicality, appearance plays an important role. A kids' suitcase is more likely to be used when its design matches what your child likes. In the ByMetz collection, you'll find playful themes and colours such as safari, flowers, mermaid, dinosaur, unicorn and racing car. Does your child love cheerful animals and vehicles? Take a look at the Little Legends kids' suitcases and small cases. If you prefer fresh, child-friendly prints, the Pick & Pack kids' suitcases are a great option.
It is about more than just appearance. A child who is happy with their own suitcase is often more willing to help pack and enjoys keeping their own luggage with them on the go. If you are also looking for an alternative for travelling, a backpack with wheels for children is also worth considering.
FAQ
Can a kids' suitcase be taken on a plane as cabin luggage?
This depends on the dimensions and the airline's rules. A kids' suitcase may be suitable as cabin luggage, but always check in advance which size and weight your ticket allows. Are you travelling with Ryanair? Pay close attention to the difference between the baggage types: a free small personal bag is 40 x 30 x 20 cm and a 10 kg cabin suitcase is 55 x 40 x 20 cm.
Is a hardcase kids' suitcase useful for children?
Yes, a hardcase is often a practical choice because it protects the contents better and keeps its shape. This is useful if you want to take clothes, toys or other belongings with you neatly, without everything getting dented or shifting straight away.
What fits in a kids' suitcase?
For short trips or as extra cabin luggage, there is usually room for a change of clothes, toiletries, sleepwear, a cuddly toy and some small entertainment for the journey. Exactly how much fits depends on the suitcase size and how compactly you pack. For extra items for school, day trips or sleepovers, kids' backpacks are also a practical addition.
What types of trips is a kids' suitcase suitable for?
A kids' suitcase is especially useful for holidays, city breaks, sleepovers and other short trips where your child takes their own belongings. Thanks to its compact size, this category is particularly suitable for situations where organisation, convenience and easy carrying are important. If a specific children's brand matches what you are looking for, you can also take a look at Trixie kids' suitcases and travel trolleys.
