Tips Please!!

Zach and I leave for Utah on Wednesday and it is going to be his first plane ride! Fun times!

I think he will love every minute of it, he is just a very very curious little boy and I have a feeling he is going to want to walk up and down the isles. I have plenty ideas of things to distract him, but I can't bring to much. So I need any tips from you experienced mothers of things to bring to help him. He will probably sleep one of the flights, but not both, so any and every tip would be very much appreciated! Thank-you!!

Hmmm...I can't think of anything too exciting to say. The basics always help us a lot.
If you can get your hands on a portable DVD player, DO IT. That was always the biggest help for Riley. Also, crayons and coloring books or maybe one of the paint with water coloring books. One time, I bought a huge sticker book at Target and that kept Riley occupied for a good part of that long, long drive to Utah.
Good luck! I wish I was going with you.

You will probably be suprised at how well he will do we used to fly from texas to utah all the time when Michael was a baby well 18 months to 3 then we started driving anyways lots of snacks DVD player if you can barrow one SUCKERS(dum dum ones) were Michaels favorite and was great for the ears one while taking off and one when landing big helper. just books and what ever else he enjoys he will do fine but it is always scary the first time round.

The BEST thing that works for my little ones on a plane is the portable DVD player! I usually buy a few new movies that they have not seen yet. It works like a charm:) Hope that helps. We can't wait to see ya'll!!!!

Dvd player is what I was gong to say also. And lots of treats he will like. I would always pack a bunch of toys and Brandon would never use them, so maybe only a few toys.
