activity packs for the journey

[Lowen37]

couldn't find a previous thread for this

I am thinking of making up some sort of pack for the outbound and return journeys from dlrp but not sure what to put in them So far ive come up with pens stickers and paper, i dont think just those would keep there attention for long!

I have 2 girls ages 4 and 2 and 1/2 when we go has anyone got any good ideas that i could pinch??

If you have a B&M homestore near you they have lots of Disney Princess themed bits - colouring books, pens, stampers etc.

I always take story books, colouring book, crayons, snap cards for my DD.

The Colour Wonder sets are great - Disney princess colouring book with pens that only colour on the book and not on anything else!!

When we went by Eurostar I made a spotting sheet for DD with things to look out for (including Sleeping Beauty Castle!!) which was fun.

How are you travelling?

I put little pots of play doh in as well (the mini sized ones) and stickers are good especially disney related ones x

We have a portable dvd player that usually keeps my DS occupied for a little while. Our flights are usually just to WDW, so they're only about 2-3 hours. Our long flight to DLP is in a couple weeks and I'm trying to figure out what else to bring too. He has a Little Einsteins magnet book that I think we're going to try, we do coloring books too, little racecars (except sometimes he gets a little enthusiastic with them!), little snacks, and I try to have some small disney books too (although for our DLP trip, he doesn't know we're going there, he just knows we're going to France!). I'm hoping sleep keeps him occupied for a little while too!

When we went to australia last year with dds age 3+4 at the time it was a small pack of cars and a packet of animal figures that keep them entertained. colouring books are great too. We fly to dlp and a colouring book and crayons keep them happy as the flight is so short.

One thing I'd say about the Eurostar is to make sure you have plenty with you to drink, we found it really warm and got very thirsty!

If you have a little table that's really handy for colouring, playing, etc.
