[quote=studiojmm]Flight: Sticker books, color wonder markers and paper (only writes on color wonder paper), little plastic animals, books, ipad/iphone, special snacks, make it an adventure . . . I always found I over packed for activities for long flights because my toddler was programmed to sleep a lot on airplanes. I still would have packed it all anyway. Time change: Let go of expectations. That tip is for you. Do your best to encourage plenty of rest regardless of how it matches with local time and go with the flow. When we traveled to Paris, we just let my 20 mo daughter's whole schedule shift back and gave up on the idea of being anywhere before 11 am. Travel was exhausting, so she took extra naps during the day, often falling asleep in the Ergo or stroller a little before dinner so she was often up until 10 or 11 pm, which actually matched local grown-up time well and we ate late often. We figured we'd get back on track at home.[/quote]
