I need some tips on occupying my 4yo dd on a longish car journey

We're off on holiday in a couple of weeks and will be driving, not a huge journey but long enough for a 4yo.

I want to pack her up some bits and bobs to keep her busy during the trip but my mind is blank. All I can think of atm is a new colouring book and maybe some reading books for her to look at(she can't read)

I'm considering a portable dvd but tbh am not sure we'd use it apart from a few times a year so not sure it's worth the money.

Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas of how to keep her from asking the dreaded 'are we there yet?' too often. I'm aware that this is a necessary question when driving any distance

TIA

I'd only have one stop too. Story tapes/cds have always been great for us. We all listen to them, though, on teh car's player. I think it promotes that feeling of group quiet and concentration which must not be broken by anyone at any cost .
