I want to get something for her LO for the trip. Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-toy-recommendations#post-964634 Thu, 25 Jul 2013 18:56:41 +0000 theknest 964634@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsbee - I keep trying to think of things. My 22 month old loves the squinkie like toys. They are a choking hazard so we have to watch him with them but they've gotten us through a lot of church sermons ;-) loves to open up the plastic "eggs" take the toy out, then put it back in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-toy-recommendations#post-960761 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 18:48:49 +0000 s1lly 960761@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I found magnetic dress up dolls at the 99 cent store. That and a small cookie sheet (also from the 99 cent store) and a pack of alphabet magnets I bought a while ago from the dollar store keeps my DD busy for at least 30 minutes. She hasnt gotten tired of them yet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-toy-recommendations#post-960209 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:22:21 +0000 theknest 960209@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsbee - hope it's a toy Olive will enjoy playing with. It's great for hand-eye coordination too! I came accross some tape online the other day that looks like a road - black with a white strip down the middle, but I'm guessing all tape is banned? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-toy-recommendations#post-959427 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 12:36:48 +0000 Mrs. Bee 959427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@theknest: oh btw i did buy an alex wooden stringing set! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-toy-recommendations#post-959414 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 12:35:43 +0000 Mrs. Bee 959414@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: the only thing there for me was glow sticks, and i can get those way cheaper at the dollar store. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-toy-recommendations#post-959283 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 12:13:01 +0000 looch 959283@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am really struggling at finding things to bring on airplanes, I feel like all I have to offer are dry erase crayons and color wonder stuff.</p> <p>I was just at Target over lunch to check out the dollar section and there was really nothing there, although most moms swear by it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-toy-recommendations#post-959271 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 12:11:14 +0000 Mrs. Bee 959271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BunnyDragon: i actually just bought the m&amp;d mini puzzle pack! and i already wrote a post on the toys we bought for the trip. coming soon! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-toy-recommendations#post-959207 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 11:54:00 +0000 BunnyDragon 959207@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 22 months old loves puzzles. We have the Melissa &amp; Doug animals mini puzzle pack. It is compact so it will fit in a purse or a diaper bag. How about this Melissa &amp; Doug wooden bear family dress up puzzle for Olive? It has 45 pieces so it will probably keep her busy for awhile. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Melissa-Doug-Wooden-Family-Dress-Up/dp/B00146G706/ref=sr_1_30?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1374684428&#038;sr=8-30&#038;keywords=Melissa+and+Doug+puzzle+set" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Melissa-Doug-Wooden-Family-Dress-Up/dp/B00146G706/ref=sr_1_30?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1374684428&#038;sr=8-30&#038;keywords=Melissa+and+Doug+puzzle+set</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-toy-recommendations#post-937004 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 20:16:25 +0000 tysonja 937004@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: no way!! good to know for the future!! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-toy-recommendations#post-936961 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 20:02:58 +0000 Mrs. Bee 936961@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@theknest: i already ordered two of those reusable sticker pads! the jungle one and the home themed one.</p> <p>@T-Mom: i did buy some felt with the intention of making my own quiet book.... but i doubt i will get around to it before we leave! </p> <p>@tysonja: i took painter's tape last time, and they actually confiscated it on one of our flights. it's considered a banned item on some airlines! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-toy-recommendations#post-936949 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 19:58:08 +0000 808love 936949@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You might consider also small regular stickers to decorate stuffed animal, you, or her. Small little windup toy. Gift wrap everything so she can take time unwrapping. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-toy-recommendations#post-936452 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 16:44:25 +0000 tysonja 936452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i've heard that one of the best (and cheap/disposable) toys for the plane is a roll of tape all for themselves... perhaps coloured painters tape? they can tape things together, tape things to the seat/tray, tape themselves. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/travel-toy-recommendations#post-936357 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 15:58:52 +0000 T-Mom 936357@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DS is around the same age as Olive and he really loves books.

(around 50 hours total!) </p> <p>You can see some of the stuff we packed last year -- <a href="http://www.hellobee.com/2012/09/13/best-infant-and-toddler-travel-toys/" rel="nofollow">http://www.hellobee.com/2012/09/13/best-infant-and-toddler-travel-toys/</a></p> <p>This year we'll be taking a couple of the same things -- notebook/crayons, play doh, magnatiles, reusable sticker book. And I bought two new toys for Olive -- a buckle toy and a three little pigs toy. Charlie will be fine, but I really need to keep Olive entertained!</p> <p>Charlie is 3 1/2 and Olive is 21 months old. </p> <p>Please let me know if you've come across any cool and small toys! </p>
