Holidays Abroad?

[midori1999]

We are going to Mexico for Christmas with my Mum and my youngest son is 8 and has Downs Syndrome.

Has anyone travelled much abroad with a child with Downs or another SN? I am a) looking for ideas of how to occupy him on the flight and b) if he is likely to be able to use the kids clubs whilst we are there? I admit it would be nice to have a bit of a break from him as he will require watching like a hawk, but also I know he would love it in the kids club.

Thanks.

Thanks. I think he will be ok in the airport and I think on the plane he'll be glued to the TV if he can be as he loves the TV but we try and limit it usually. He's also easily distracted by food/snacks. I might try and find a couple of small travel games he can play too.

I think I might email the hotel and ask about the kids club. I don't see why I couldn't leave him there, but you never know...
