I'm a mum of one, my little boy is 5 and a half months old, we regularly go on car journey not long ones but about an hour or so to see family and friends because I recently moved house. Usually this is how it goes, he is fine in his car seat playing with his toys but after a little while he begins to cry and scream, to the point he is getting him self into a right state, once he sees me he is happy again. I was just wondering if anyone else is going through this with their little one and if anyone has any tips or toys I can give him to help comfort him through our car journeys?
For a bit of content we have a mirror for him and us in back on his car seat, he also has a Lamaze octopus, Jellycat Jungle tails book and also his favourite teether attached to his car seat, when me or my partner sit in the back with him he is all happiness and light but he does grab onto your finger and hold it for most of the journey..for comfort I think.
