Parents are rushing to snap up a range of accessories from the new and highly-coveted Aussie brand Two Cubs, saying they are perfect for long car journeys or trips out with their kids.
Two Cubs was designed in February 2024 by mum-of-two Viktoriia with the bid of creating “delightful and memorable travel experiences by providing innovative and child-centred travel activities and accessories”.
Understanding first-hand the difficulty of travelling with kids, Viktoriia came up with the idea for Two Cubs because she wanted to combine her passion for sustainable living with practical, fun solutions for families on the go.

The resulting brand’s mission statement is simple:
“With every product designed to answer the call of adventure, we ensure that the only thing parents need to plan is the fun they’ll have”.
There are many pieces included in the collection, whether parents are after a travel backpack, wet bag or something for their kids to do when they’re on the move in the car.
One of the biggest hits on the Two Cubs website is the Crafty Curls Set ($45.95), which provides perfect mess-free craft entertainment while on the go.
Comprising organic wax sticks along with cute little sheets of paper for design and a travel wallet to keep it in, the kit works to improve fine motor skills, creativity, and imagination — all without destroying your car in the process.
The Crafty Curls Set has been endorsed by teachers and occupational therapists, but it’s parents who it’s the real hit with.
“Great entertainment for kids!” writes one reviewer.
“We absolutely love Crafty Curls! These wax sticks have been a game-changer for our family.
“They keep my four-year-old daughter entertained for hours, both at home and on the go. They’re portable and super convenient to take along for a walk or meet a friend in a cafe. Highly recommend Crafty Curls for any family looking for fun and sustainable activities for their kids!”
Another said: “We absolutely love our Crafty Curls! They are such a great on the go activity and my girls loved taking them away on holiday with us”.
And it’s not jsut the Crafty Curls Set that parents adore.
Elsewhere, they can pick up various-themed backpacks like the Jungle Backpack ($130) or the on-sale Safari Backpack ($78).
Crafted from recyclable DuPont Tyvek, the backpacks are lightweight, water-resistant, and tough enough to handle any adventure.
They also all come with a colouring book with engaging tasks, stickers, crayons, and a notebook that you can whack out next time you find yourselves out with the kids with nothing to entertain them except an iPhone.
Finally, parents also love the Multi-Colour Wet Bags ($19.95), which are perfect for keeping wet or dirty clothes separate from clean items.
Made from 100 per cent recyclable DuPont Tyvek, the bags are compact and reusable — perfect for wet and muddy days out or un-planned swimming trips.
Other shoppers have raved about the wet bags and backpacks.
“Love love love the backpack!!! Is light is easy to clean is fun no complaining of carrying it around from the girl!!! Win win situation,” one shopper wrote.
“The backpack has been amazing for our trips. My child loves drawing in the notebook and colouring in the activity book, giving us some quiet time on the road. It’s super durable and comfortable to wear. It’s the perfect size for all kids’ travel essentials. Highly recommend!” another added.
