Hello, we are heading off soon on a long haul flight with all 4 DC's. Ages 10, 8, 6 and 4. They have plenty of games on iPods, Nintendo DS and leapsters but I am trying to think of flight suitable non screen things to take for them that won't drive the other passengers bonkers! Help please! Smile

Seriously, don't worry about screen time. MY dds took heaps of stuff on a long haul, I made them up travel bags of all new stuff & it was barely touched.

The screens were the most popular!

Mini 'connect 4'

Thanks all! I know the screens are going to be the best bit! I just need something as back up! Smile also we have so e fairly lengthy connection waiting times so the things I bring might be handy then too!

So far we have sudoku, crosswords, snap, proper cards, plain paper pads for drawing and pens and pencils! I will go pick up a travel connect 4 and the other bits today, I'm sure they will get used when we are camping the other end anyway!

Thanks again. Smile
