The dreaded flight

My kids have been traveling on planes since they were babies. Most of the time they do pretty good but on occasion there has been some moments where they just can't seem to to sit still. When I heard about Portable Playtime, I knew this would be the perfect thing to keep them entertained. It's a backpack that folds up with pockets to put all their crayons, treats & small toys. It can then be unfolded, creating a play mat & fits perfectly over the tray table. Available in 5 different patterns & the best part is... it's one less thing for me to carry! (Remember to put your tray tables up and in locked position before landing;)

We have a GIVEAWAY! A lucky reader will receive a Portable Playtime Backpack in the "Plane Fun" Print. Just follow the instructions belowA $45.95 Value

Kaylene said...

My favorite is the blue and yellow one! I LOVE anything with yellow, I forgot the name, plane fun? Anyway, I would love to be the proud winner of one of these little babies! My one travel/plane trip is to buy a few new card games or toys and keep them as a surprise until they get unruley. Then wala! Mom pulls out her magic wand and appears a new little treasure to keep them busy for another minute or two!

love the pirate passage! My tip is to create a bag of small toys your little one has never seen before and take them out on the plane. We flew to England this past summer and it worked for us!

My favorite is the Pirate Passage one since my little one is obsessed with pirates at this point. He would get a kick out of the plane one as well since he points out every plane we see.

I like the enchanted adventures one best since we're taking my niece Asia to Universal Studios this would be perfect for her. Nice giveaway, thanks.

Unknown said...

To make traveling with kids easier let them bring their own little bag of snacks with some healthy options in it so they don't get fussy waiting for pit stops as little tummies need to be fueled more often than big ones. If flying and they are old enough make sure to have them chew sugarless gum for takeoff and landing so their little ears don't pop and hurt.

Aero-playin'Vintage airplane design
is my favorite, my son would love it. My only tip is to get and early flight so that if anything gets delayed you still have a chance of getting on another flight the same day.. There is nothing worse than an overnight stay in a strange stopover city with kids.
