[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid is not prone to carsickness, had no problem holding a kindle fire screen at age 2.5 last year for a 10 hour car ride (while rear facing). I think you would have some inkling if this particular child were carsick prone by now. I can't do tablets now (as an adult) but had no problem reading in the car as a child--motion sickness tends to get worse with age in my experience.[/quote]

OP again, and one of my boys has puked a couple times in the car and definitely gets air sickness.  I think we haven't had too many issues in the car because we already do all the right things like no dairy, wrist bands, ginger etc etc.

Also from what I understand, a lot of kids get motion sick but then grow out of it.  Maybe it gets worse again as an adult?  Not sure...[/quote]

Huh.  It sounds like your kid is feeling car sick.  Is he forward facing yet? That will help a ton. It doesn’t sound like he’s going to do well with a tablet op.  [/quote]

Yes he’s FF.  It seems like fixed video is ok vs tablet in the lap.  But I think this has convinced me to take a pass.[/quote]
