im got a 19 month old any tips on how to keep him entertained durin the flight
DONT WORRY!
I was dreading taking my 21 month old. But we survived the 9 hours with ease! Before we boarded I just let him run around as he wanted to. I was las on the plane (could bear the thought of sitting with him on the runway for more time than I had to) and I took the advice of my pharmacist re anti sickness medication as my daughter suffers badly. Gave him a big dolop of piriton just before we went and he slept for about two hours (we had tried it before). He then had his lunch (which we strung out for as long as we could) and then combined walking around the plane with little activities. The small Thomas the Tank aqua draws were FAB. Books, colouring, little cars etc. He was fine. On the return a delay on an overnight flight meant it was his normal bedtime and he slept really well.
Scotch tape! When we flew with Ds at 18 months he had more fun playing with scotch tape then anything else!!!
