13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 [Next] - We use our camcorder, that has a flip out viewing screen, to watch our children's favorite movies on the plane. We record them ahead of time by using a tripod and zooming in on the TV screen. Turn the TV up loud when recording, because the plane noise makes it more difficult to hear when watching it later. Amber Moloney ID479 - You can't beat music or stories for kids to pass the time. The ideal may be a personal stereo with headphones, but that's not always available or practical. If everyone has to listen together, it can be tougher, since much of kids' music is intolerable by older siblings and parents ... but not all.

I also have some stories in CD form at http://LightUpYourBrain.com The Chuckleberries The Chuckleberries ID414 - For long road trips with children, take a little spiral notebook and ahead of the trip write down names of all the cities you will be passing through. Then on the trip, as you get to each city, point it out to them and they can check it off their list.

On the return trip, they start at the bottom of the list and work backward. This worked really well with a six- and eight-year-old on a trip from Michigan to Florida. Theresa Dyer ID938 - If you are traveling with a baby or young child, staying in a holiday rental apartment is often more practical than a hotel. Most companies - such as Barcelona apartments - will lend you a baby cot for free. Suzanne Greene ID2157 - Traveling with young children can sometimes be difficult. One of my top air travel tips, which most people never think of, is to take your child's car seat along. More travel information is available at Travel-Top-Tips.com.
