[BunnyBoo]

Hi,

First time flying with our ds any advice on how to handle the flight, he is a very very active and hyper 3 yr old. Only 2 hr flight what can i do to entertain him?

Alsol any advice on anything i need to pack apart from the usual clothes suncream etc?

TIA

stay at home

books, crayons, fav soft toy.

Buy a portable DVD player.

fav snacks.

We have a 3 hr one with dd next week, was just going to take some books and colouring things and nibbles

Snacks, magazines, activity books, paper, crayons, story books, toy car, magnadoodle tyope thing, etc.

And let him have a couple of walks to toilet, etc.

2 hours will pass pretty quickly TBH and he is likely to be fascinated to start with. Let him sit enear the window and spot the little houses, etc. Hopefully it won't be cloudy!

Thanks all and anything i need to be taking with me on holiday that may come in handy?

if he's picky his fav food / cereal / marmite

a sunhat

a UV sunsuit

an id braclet for him if he wonders off on beach and you loose sight, with your mobile number on it?????

a parasol for your buggy

I don't have one but my good friend has and I thought how fab. Expensive but good for while on holiday in mornings when you want to chill, lie in, get organised.
For any long car journeys.
I'd say go for it.

BA has seat-back tellies with 18 channels on the UK-Canada run. It's why we always fly BA these days. DS1 loved them last year, at 2.5, and even more this year, at nearly 4.
