list of favorite car/airplane activities for kids

Whether you are planning a roadtrip or a flight, one of the biggest concerns when you have children (especially young ones) is how to keep them busy and/or content.

Members to ListPlanIt will find the lists they need in Travel Planning to plan for a road trip or family vacation.  Not yet a member?  Join today and get organized for a smooth travel adventure.

Here is a list of what always goes into our activity bags when we go away from home:

  • Magnetic doodle boards
  • I Spy books
  • Activity/coloring books
  • Writing/coloring implements
  • Cards (flash or playing)
  • Personal music player & headphones
  • Stuffed animals (pretend play)
  • Books (picture &/or chapter)
  • Notebooks (for journaling or letterwriting)
  • Peanuts or Pistachios (a snack AND an activity)

What activity does your family make sure to pack on trips?
