Things to bring on airplane for DS to do?

Marce921

We're bringing our DVD player, his Tag reading system (which he's getting for his birthday just prior to going on vacation), coloring books, and Uno, which he LOVES to play. What other things are good busy items to bring or do you think that's enough? TIA!

Sounds like you've got a good variety. How long is the flight? I'd say throw in a few snacks, and you're all good.

Oh yes, I have TONS of snacks (for everyone). LOL

We have two flights that are something like 2ish hours each? I'm not real sure because my parents have all the info (they're going with us and bought all our tickets together so we could all sit together).

yep that all sounds good.  I wouldnt bring too much stuff as you have to carry it all over the airport & stuff.  Definitely bring snacks with a sippy cup...buy juice or water at the airport after u go thru security.

dumdum lollipops - DS gets one on take off and landing -helps with the ears.  We always bring an apple to break up the million other snacks he gets. 

Last flight, I brought a sticker mosaic that kept him busy for almost an hour.

I really want to bring some sort of fruit for DS, but since we're flying internationally, I'm not sure we can bring fruits. But, the suckers are a good idea! I was going to let him try gum for the first time, but I was nervous about that! LOL

Oh, and I forgot.... last trip we took, I discovered DS's love for trail mix!

Do you have any of those I Spy books? My guys have the mini ones and really like them.

One of his Tag books is an I Spy book.
