Last time I flew anywhere was when DS was 2 months old. I am flying out next weekend. I have a 1 hour flight, followed by a 1 hour layover, then a 2 hour flight. I want to get him some new books, stickers, a magnadoodle to play with. Does your child have any favorite things for the plane?

I have a blog about this! Link in sig; use the "Toddler Travel" tag on the right.

We got DS a sticker book that has truck and car stickers and pictures of different scenes to put them on. Let's just say that on a 4 hour flight he slept one hour and looked at that book for the other 3!
I would say just make sure that you have some favorite books, LOTS of snacks, and maybe a portable DVD player if you have one. We bring that all the time.
Dominoes
A small bag that zips- he puts toys in, takes them out, zips it up
Post-its or those signature flags that automatically pop up
Sticker books or stickers
Mirror compact that can open & close
7 day plastic pill box with finger food (puffs, cheerios, raisins) that can fit in each compartment
Lots of food (this keeps him occupied more than toys)
