They are then responsible to buy all those little treats they want (like sodas or a snack). They can keep any money they don't spend. This keeps the kids from begging to buy everything they see. I find my children don't want as many snacks - they prefer to keep the cash! I spend less and don't have to deal with whining children! Jean Kaiser ID166 - If you plan to be driving into the night, bring glowsticks for each child. They will be occupied until they fall asleep. Sophia ID957 - Look into purchasing some Goodnites. These protect kids from accidents (which tend to happen often while travelling) but are more underwear-like. They fit kids over 125lbs. Any kids who you are travelling with (especially in the car) should wear them just in case. It can really save clothes and car interiors in heavy traffic. Goodnites can fit kids anywhere from 3 to 16 years old too. Jennifer Smith ID912 - To keep children entertained and well behaved during long airplane trips, buy a small carry-on (children's size), with wheels. Go to an 'everything is a dollar' store, and fill the bag with 'surprises'. Have the children carry/roll the bag around the airport etc., and during the filght, give them one surprise every 30 minutes or so. You will be amazed at how entertained they can stay, and perhaps give you a chance to 'catch a nap'. Marwan Atalla ID931 - Buy hand sanitizer from Bath & Body Works or Linens 'n Things - it works without water and is perfect for cleaning grimy, sticky hands when you can't find a restroom.
