[quote=Anonymous]Does your DS hate the car during trips around town or hates it on long car rides? My DCs were always much better if we were on the interstate instead of stop and go traffic. Tips: lower your expectations. A 6 hour drive will be an 8 hour trip. Stop at rest stops so that DS can lay on a blanket in the grass and stretch out his legs for awhile. Just stopping isn't good enough -- the stretching is key (so don't hold him the whole time). Driving at night is another option, depending on your kid. One of my children would not sleep in the carseat at night, but the other kids did fine. The only drawback is that once you get to your destination your DS will be wide awake and you'll be exhausted.
