What's in your airplane or restaurant goodie bag?

Making a run to Target soon to get some "goodies" for my 3yo for the airplane and restaurants. Besides crayons, coloring books, playdoh...what else is in your goodie bag?

For the airplane, plenty of snacks and lolipops, a magnadoodle, portable DVD player. I usually just put a few crayons/pens in a ziploc and have a small 4x6 size notepad to write on, and 1 colorbook. Both my sons will carry a small backpack that they can fill with little toys and action figures. I also bring tissues, wetwipes, sanitizer, and 1 change of underwear.

At a restaurant, they are allowed to bring in ONLY 2 actionfigures. Usually the servers bring a paper and crayons to color.

WE have mini etch-a-sketches, color wonder sets (they can only color on colorwonder paper), their leapsters and gaems (our boys are 3.5 and 4.5 and LOVE theirs)

On the leapster -- I was thinking of getting the leapster2 for my 3yo. Do you think it's too advanced for a 3yo? They don't have the regular leapsters anymore, and I think the leapster2 is the new on that came out; it's smaller than the old one.

We had a portable DVD player but it broke and I can't bear to invest in a new one (the cheapest one at Target was $90) after adding up how much $$ I've already spent just getting ready!

Both of my DDs got leapsters at a fairly young age (around 3) and absolutely loved them. There are many games that they could play without knowing how to read. Another big plus was that it has a headphone jack.

My DDs are 8 and 6 now and will occasionally put down their Game Boys and go back to the leapsters.

Not sure if you have a Disney store near you, but ours is having a big sale. They have these little cases that have 2 scenes inside and character magnets to put on the scenes. They are playhouse Disney characters so, Handy Manny, Tigger and Pooh, Mickey, and Little Einsteins. Our store had them for $5.99 and an additional 40% off.
