great travel toys for toddlers image

We are taking a weekend trip to go to a wedding and taking the kids. It is about a 6 hour drive and driving overnight or taking more than 1 day is really not an option. My plan so far is to leave early (5 or 6 A), maybe have a movie in the car and stop for breakfast and play around around 9A. Any other helpful advice for traveling (besides not taking them as my sister suggested. lol) would be appreciated.
Answer
We took our 2 1/2 year old twins on a 12 hr trip from Oregon to Montana and found the best thing was to have lots of their toys in the car. We did not have a dvd, so it was all about toys, books, their music. We have an older daughter who was 10 at the time, so she would read stories. The person who wasn't driving would show them things out the window. It was actually a wonderful trip both ways and the girls did great. Good Luck!!

It will be a three 8 hr trips with breaks at the airport, how can I keep my one year old son entertained? He will sleep for only 10 hrs, the rest is play time,
Any other advise on travel planning and inflight food is also welcome...
Answer
take a portabal dvd player so he can watch cartoons or a movie, pack a few of his small toys like cars, blocks stuff he can play with, colouring in will keep him entertained and also a couple of books to read to him if he gets restless dont try to keep him quiet walk up and down the aisle with him show him out the window. At take off and landing give him a drink as this will equalize his ears and stop them from getting sore. Make up bags of finger foods for him like sandwiches, rice cakes, biscuits etc this is the easiest thing for a toddler on a plane. Also remember to pack spare clothes and nappies. I would invest in one of the trunkies, the suitcases for children, for all of ur sons things u can take it on the flight with u and it saves u cramming it all into a bag i have one for my daughter and its great and perfect for trips for her toys.
