He loved laying them out on the tray and picking them up and putting them away. Over and over.<br /> -a days of week pill box. Put snacks in each and she canwork to open close each one.</p> <p>Both are small and kept LO entertained, although our flight was much shorter. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-toddler-travel-tips#post-1569625 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 09:42:57 +0000 birdofafeather 1569625@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: good idea!</p> <p>@Periwinkle: we love our boba and we're absolutely bringing it as she sleeps in there, but not her stroller!</p> <p>@Pumuckl: thanks for posting that! she has some great tips!</p> <p>@looch: genius! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-toddler-travel-tips#post-1569260 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 07:40:59 +0000 bpcmarj 1569260@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pumuckl: Thank you for sharing that article. I am flying next week with my almost 2 year old for the first time and I found that immensely helpful :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-toddler-travel-tips#post-1569184 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 06:56:44 +0000 looch 1569184@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Also bring a surge protector, you will need all the outlets you can get.</p> <p>Also, please do not pace the aisles, use it only as an absolute last resort. It's annoying when I am sitting in an aisle seat and as soon as my son sees you pacing, he wants to join in the action as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-toddler-travel-tips#post-1569139 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 05:45:59 +0000 Pumuckl 1569139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you still use a pacifier, def. bring one on the plane. @hilsy85: tip on the crib sheet is great if you use a hotel provided crib. You can also bring fluids for the LO even through security so def. make use of that and bring her sippy/cup with her fav. liquid.</p> <p>Also this blog has some great tips:<br /> <a href="http://mommyceo.wordpress.com/2009/03/19/sanity-on-a-plane-with-your-babytoddlerpreschooler-dos-and-donts-from-a-frequent-flying-family/" rel="nofollow">http://mommyceo.wordpress.com/2009/03/19/sanity-on-a-plane-with-your-babytoddlerpreschooler-dos-and-donts-from-a-frequent-flying-family/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-toddler-travel-tips#post-1569136 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 05:37:56 +0000 lamariniere 1569136@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>On the flight, anything goes: snacks, screen time, pacing the aisles, anything to keep the peace! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-toddler-travel-tips#post-1568666 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 18:25:24 +0000 Periwinkle 1568666@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have so much fun!

We're flying 6 hours to Hawaii with our 15 month old (her first flight!) and staying in a hotel with adjoining rooms with our in laws.</p> <p>What I've got so far: bring a night light for sneaking back in the room when LO is sleeping, keep some cheap toys for LO for the flight and bring them out one at a time, have one of us wait with LO to board the plane and get some energy out....</p> <p>What are your best tips? </p>
