I once went on a 21/2 hour plane ride with my husband and 18 month old. We didn't buy him his own seat to save money. That was mistake #1 lol....get her a seat to buckle her in. She doesn't have to sit there the whole time but it will help. Bring toys, books, snacks, drinks,etc...actually not sure if you can bring a drink but you know what I mean...and lolipops! Break out one thing at a time, not all at once so she has enough to entertain her the whole time. Try to get her a window seat. That might be entertaining to look out the window. :)

We are going to Cedar point this Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and to the Toledo Zoo on Monday. The drive down to CP is about 5 hours from home. We will have two toddlers at Cedar Point along with four adults and two teenagers.

What fun - lol; planning the drive around nap or sleep time is always a great idea. However, if that is not possible, try allowing everyone in the car to pick some songs to hear. The teenagers will be able to tollerate the toddler songs if they know they will get to hear something they want (within reason). Picture books, paper and pen, road games - car colors, snacks, lots of stops and some of their favorite toys are some things that have helped me. As a last resort, if you don't have any, find a friend or family member that is willing to let you borrow their travel dvd player and let them watch movies - Babe, Pig in the City is a decent family movie.
Good luck! And remember, family road trips are things that memories are made from. Think Vacation and RV - lol
