TV shows for 17 month old on a plane

[Anonymous]

Looking for suggestions for TV episodes to download for a couple very long upcoming plane rides. My LO hasn't watched much except the occasional Cocomelon episode. I don't expect anything will hold his attention more than a few minutes, but it would be great to hear if there was anything that enthralled your kids at this age. (When I google TV for young toddlers I mostly just turn up pedantic stuff about how kids under 2 should never look at screens...)

My toddler is older now but we find Peppa Pig pretty inoffensive and calm and she loves it. She also loved nature videos at that age!

I don't think there is a point to TV at this age. That sounds crazy. I would bring a bunch of sticky notes, favorite toys, crayons, small puppets or something and 2 board books and tons of snacks.

Kipper the Dog. Worth paying for if not free.

My kid was enthralled by a virtual Christmas card on repeat around two. And a 30-second video of my sister's dog. I honestly think something short watched on repeat (analogous to wanting the same book to be read approximately 15000 times in a row) is what you want. Fortunately headphones exist.

I also think you have to remember that toddlers like things that are familiar and repeated. I'd look at little videos with him at home, and figure out what he likes, and plan on watching that on the plane.

I also would not introduce the idea that videos have sound. Watch it with the sound off from the beginning, becuase keeping headphones on a 17 month old is not going to happen.

My oldest at that age LOVED to watch the videos of himself that I had on my cellphone. We got a good hour + on a plane ride with those.
