Hello,
So I'm going on a long flight with my 1 year old pretty soon. Unfortunately I couldn't find a flight during his nap time, so I'm really worried of how the flight is going to be. He does not like to be held for too long and he is going on my lap. What can I do to entertain him during the flight?



Answer
when you get on the plane...and eveyone is seated...If there isn't an empty seat next to you(you could get lucky) Ask the filght attentand IF they coudl find you a seat with an empty seat next to you. Someone may be willing to swtich with you, or there may be 2 empty seats avaiable.

A dvd player..with some of his favorite shoes/movies...will help. If he likes to watch tv. But..save them! don't put them on rigth away. try and get an hour in....bring him on the plane hungry..starve him..lol.jk! so he can eat a meal. If you have a laptop, ipad, iphone,kindle(with internet) download some kiddy games, or just let him play with it for a while. OR books..coloring books? small toys, puzzles..leapfrog makes magnetic puzzles..they are great, if he likes puzzles. Connect 4!! as toddlers both my kids loved putting the checkers in....then letting them go..and doing it over and over again! they make a travel version. Snacks..bring snacks. Visit the bathroom, once an hour..wash your hands..you can pee if you have to(: just to get up out of your seat for 5 minutes. He is a baby..but a lolly pop, since he will be on your lap may buy you 15 minutes. Bubble GUM!! face him, facing you..blow bubbles and let him pop them...play a game..don't let him pop every one..I am not a fan of kids using ear phones but..if he likes..kiddie music, download raffi, laurie berkeer or some fun kiddie songs for him to listen to.

When taking toddlers on a long flight..."rules" can be broken for the day(: Wake him up an hour earlier..maybe he will nap. Or maybe you will get lucky and he will get board to sleep!

I traveled with 2 toddlers. 1 and 3. the flight was 3 hours..and it went surprisingly well! I was very prepared, Crayola...Color majic stuff is fantastic!!! no mess, and kept them occupied. there is also (cant think of the name) but paint books, there is a "special" paint brush you put water in and when painted..makes a lovely picture. the paint is on the paper..the water makes the color come out.

Good Luck...I will keep my fingers crossed for you...that he will take a nap!

Is the sims 3 world adventures worth it?




:D


I want to go buy it but i need to know if it is worth it.


Answer
You will like it if:
1. You enjoy adventure-style RPGs. (Indiana Jones fans will probably also cheer.)
2. You are becoming bored with the base town and want somewhere new to play.
3. You have been wanting new recipes.
4. You enjoy displaying unique collectibles in your Sim homes.
5. You like (relatively simple) puzzles.
6. You have been wanting new fruits and veggies to grow and/or harvest, or new locations to fish and things to catch while fishing.
7. You're intrigued by the "antique" aspect of collectibles and/or archaelogy.
8. You have Bookworm Sims who will be mind-boggled by all the new books.

I think they did a beautiful job on the graphics; China, Egypt, and France are beautifully illustrated. I think they did a good job on the tombs as well, but my favorite part (aside all the new recipes and food stuffs to use and grow) has been the new collectibles! Vases, bowls, and cool statues and figurines. And you get to ride on a scooter! Scooters are sold in France and Egypt. You can make nectar and fortune cookies. Your Sim towns now have tourists, eeks. Sims now have storage! You can buy storage trunks in each town and actually put stuff in them, yay! Teens can travel to the other countries alone, but children require an adult. Infants and toddlers cannot travel, but there was a glitch when I left an infant with a babysitter; the infant was abducted and I had to move the family to a new house to get her back as her picture icon was gone. So I'd advise leaving an adult family member home with the baby and keep babysitters away. You can make some serious Simoleons adventuring, but beware, it also can cost a lot to do it, too! lol
